"In addition, the assemblies should be held on a separate territory, where each person will be provided with an area of five square meters. If Kyiv is included in the 'orange' zone, all assemblies will be canceled. They are prohibited in this case," he said.
According to the official, another rule will be introduced in educational institutions from the beginning of autumn, namely control over changes in the premises' microclimate.
"It is scientifically proven this pathogen is transmitted in closed dry and humid premises. Therefore, control over the microclimate is required. The norm is 40%-60% humidity, while the room temperature should not exceed +20°C to +10°C. There is also a fifth factor: if someone gets sick, or the symptoms of the disease appear, he should consult a doctor immediately," Ruban added.
