Russia in second place in global list

World-wide coronavirus positive cases list has changed frequently. United States has retained first slot in positive cases since two months. Other countries have competed for second place in the list.

Italy occupied second place few days, Spain comes into second place for some days and now Russia occupied second place of having number of positive cases among the world nations. USSR (erstwhile Russia) and US were strong competitors each other in 50’s to 80’s. Russia became faint after USSR split into many in 1991. Corona cases in Russia edge towards 300K.


Russia was nowhere in picture when US and other European nations faced huge impact of coronavirus. Russian President Vladimir Putin took some preventive measures like announcing the lockdown on March third week. He said the country's "non-working period" imposed to curb the virus had lasted six weeks. It looks like Vladimir Putin has run out of patience with coronavirus. Millions of workers back to factories and building sites across Russia, declaring six weeks of full lockdown over.  Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin returned to work on after recovery from coronavirus.

Controlled virus spread across the nation after lifting the lockdown. For the first time in his active political life, Putin is faced by a problem which is absolutely not under his control and which broke all of his plans. On other side, Russia mortality rate is less than 1% that surprised many including WHO. The low mortality has raised some skeptical eyebrows, but the suggestion that Russia is actively under-reporting fatalities was angrily denied. Early detection and earlier hospital treatment may be helping Russia avoid the distressing scenes of mass graves and overloaded morgues that played out in parts of Europe. Initially, Russians did well but lifting lockdown not wise decision it seems.
