According to Amiran Gamkrelidze's estimation, the spread of "Indian strain" of coronavirus across the country amounts to 10-15 percent, despite the fact that there are 20 laboratory-confirmed cases of the variant.

"We estimate that 10-15 percent of the circulating strains in the country are related to the Delta strain. We had 18 laboratory-confirmed cases and if I am not mistaken, 2 more cases were added on Saturday. Therefore, we must be careful. Let’s not repeat the same mistake we did last summer when we calmed down ourselves as if we defeated covid and thought that we could do everything. We have not defeated covid", - Amiran Gamkrelidze, head of the National Center for Disease Control said.
