The death rate from coronavirus is 2% in Ukraine, Viktor Liashko, the nation’s chief sanitary doctor, tells RFE/RL. Worldwide, the death rate has dropped to 3%, from 7%, largely better medical protocols adopted over the last six months. Over the last seven months, 5,673 people in Ukraine have died of Covid-19. With numbers expected to grow this fall, Yulia Tymoshenko, a Covid survivor, said yesterday she has united all Rada factions behind a bill to create a national task force, headed by President Zelenskiy, to combat the pandemic.
