Armenia has nearly 7,000 COVID-19 patients under home control, Anahit Avanesyan, Deputy Minister of Health, said at a government meeting on Friday.

According to her, another 1,800 patients are hospitalized: 425 people are in serious condition, 100 people are in critical condition and 23 people are connected to mechanical ventilation devices.

Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan, in turn, noted that the level of observance of anti-epidemiological rules is being sharply reduced, which is a serious problem.
