"To prevent the spread of a new strain, it is necessary to be vaccinated with a booster dose 6 months after the second dose or after recovery from the disease. The preventive measures are the same: to wear a mask, not to visit crowded places, to keep a distance, to strictly follow the rules of hand and respiratory hygiene,” specialist-expert of Ministry of Health Tayyar Eyvazov said responding questions about the omicron strain on the ministry's social media accounts, APA reports.
"Everyone must bear the responsibility. If the person feels these symptoms, he should first isolate himself, reduce contact, wear a mask and demand it from other family members, and then consult a doctor," said Mr. Eyvazov.
