The pushback comes as architects of the limited quarantine now wage their own personal battles with coronavirus. On Saturday, Health Minister Maksym Stepanov announced that he had tested positive for Covid-19. Also under treatment are: President Zelenskiy, his chief of staff, the speaker of the Rada, the first deputy speaker of the Rada, and the Finance Minister. ZN.UA reports that 14 Rada members and 31 Rada staffers now are sick. Since the start of the pandemic, the news site calculates, 75 deputies – or 18% of the total – have been hit by the virus.
