We predict that we will have 350 to 400 cases of infection by the end of this week, said Amiran Gamkrelidze, Director of the National Center for Disease Control, said during his Facebook live on Tuesday evening.

According to him, the whole month of April and 1-2 weeks of May will be quite difficult and the number of infections may double every week.

"We predict that we will have between 350 and 400 cases of infection by the end of this week. April and the first one or two weeks of May will be quite difficult. Therefore, all the recommendations issued by us must be taken into account, especially with regard to the social distancing. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the fight against this infection. However, there are other models that predict that the peak may be later, in July or September, " said Gamkrelidze.
