MOSCOW, Sept 14 — President Vladimir Putin will self-isolate after coronavirus cases were detected in his inner circle, the Kremlin said today, as Russia struggles with stubbornly high Covid infection rates. When asked whether Putin had taken a coronavirus test and if it was negative, Peskov replied: “Undoubtedly”.

“Self-isolation doesn’t directly affect the president’s work, there will just be no in-person events for some time,” Peskov told journalists. Foreign leaders, journalists and officials have all been required to self-isolate in advance of being in contact with Putin and a disinfection tunnel was installed at his residence outside Moscow.

Putin yesterday met with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and with Russian athletes returning from the Tokyo Paralympic Games.Russia is among the countries hardest-hit by the coronavirus pandemic — with the fifth-highest number of recorded cases according to an AFP tally — and has struggled to rein in infections despite easy access to vaccines.

As of today, about 39.9 million of Russia’s 146 million people had been fully vaccinated, according to the Gogov website, which tallies Covid data from the regions. The Kremlin initially set a goal of fully inoculating 60 per cent of Russia’s population by September, but later dropped that target even though free jabs have been available since early December.
