Interesting case of Russia's spread of #covid. Everything started in China in December, annual traffic from China to Russia is 2 million people, which continued for 1-2 months until Russia closed borders in end of January.
Yet, most of confirmed cases is concentrated in Moscow (11k) and official number of cases in towns like Krasnoyarsk, Vladivostok and Khabarovsk (closest to China) is nominal which seems unlikely.
I'm just wondering if what we see in Russia now is not a *second* wave...
Note: I started wondering when I realized I was in Russia from end of December and 2 weeks in January, and I got quite ill, with temperature and strong cough, which very rarely happens to me. So when I recalled that recently, I had these obvious associations of course. On second thought, it was most likely just a regular cold, because no one else from our expedition got it and I was still able to the work, just feeling like shit.
