Popova: the world remains tense epidemiological situation

Head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova informed about the continuing difficult epidemiological situation in the world. She stressed that the Agency carries out comprehensive control in order to prevent the penetration of infectious diseases on the territory of Russia.

The international situation remains unstable. The epidemiological background in different countries is heterogeneous, while in many of them it is assessed as complex. According to the head of the department, foreign citizens visiting the Russian Federation, as well as Russians traveling abroad for vacation or to solve business issues, bring a large number of various pathogens to their homeland.

Popova added that Rospotrebnadzor is implementing a set of all necessary measures aimed at reducing epidemic threats within the country. According to her, experts provide the most stringent monitoring at checkpoints across the state border and track the facts of the import of infectious diseases into the country.

Earlier, the head of the service reported that by the end of 2026, about five hundred cases of import of dangerous pathogens were officially recorded in Russia. At the same time, she emphasized that none of these episodes led to further spread of infection in the population.
