Kyrgyzstan reported a significant rise in coronavirus cases on Monday, less than a month after the Central Asian nation's government lifted restrictions in key
The country is one of several ex-Soviet nations that have seen a rise in cases in recent days, including neighbouring Kazakhstan. Kyrgyzstan's government reported a daily record of 205 new cases on Monday.
Baatyrbekov also said the government was selecting a location for a"tent camp, which will be used in case of mass infections," in quotes reported by the Kyrgyz government press service. Aziz Surakmatov, the mayor of the capital Bishkek, is among the officials that have reported contracting the coronavirus in recent weeks.
Maksat Damir uulu wrote on Twitter Monday that his wife had run a temperature for three straight days and that both of them had lost their sense of smell -- another commonly reported symptom of the illness."The mobile team refuses to come to us and take tests, because our symptoms are not enough. That is how it is," Damir uulu wrote.
