MOSCOW: Russia saw a record daily rise in new coronavirus cases and related deaths on Tuesday , its coronavirus crisis response centre said, with data suggesting the world's biggest country by territory has overtaken China and Iran in confirmed infections.
Russia's total population of 147 million is scattered across 11 time zones and 85 regions. The coronavirus data includes the Crimea peninsula, which Moscow annexed from Ukraine in 2014. Yandex, Russia's top search engine, has recently introduced a special self-isolation index which tracks people's activity based on Yandex apps, including maps, taxi, food delivery and others.
Although Moscow's index is better than an average in nearly 300 other Russian cities that Yandex tracks, it went down this week from early April, indicating that people are starting to disregard the lockdown restrictions.
