The incidence of SARS in the Penza region began to decline

At the 45th week of 2026 in the Penza region recorded 1950 cases of acute respiratory viral infections. The indicator was 157.8 per 100 thousand population, which is 7.8% lower than the previous week.

Among all cases, the proportion of children was 15.4%. In the regional center, the situation has also improved: the total incidence of respiratory infections in Penza reached 177.4 per 100 thousand population, demonstrating a decrease of 10.8% compared to last week.

There have been 29 confirmed cases of influenza. Rospotrebnadzor specialists remind of the need for prevention. First of all, this concerns wearing masks in crowded places and timely vaccination.

It is also important to wash your hands thoroughly with soap after the street, transport and contact with money or doorknobs. If soap and water are not available, alcohol antiseptics will help. Try not to touch your face with dirty hands and avoid mass events. At the first signs of malaise, you should consult a doctor, since only a specialist can prescribe competent treatment.

The epidemiological situation in the region remains under strict control of sanitary services.
