Baku / 14.03.20 / Turan: Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and his family have self-insulated in the Sevan cottage. He announced this on his Facebook page. According to Pashinyan, he and his wife will pass a Corona Virus test, as there is a possibility of infection.
“We were worried to learn that the Corona Virus was confirmed at the President of Brazil. Having learned about it yesterday, we decided to isolate ourselves. On March 7, Anna met with the wife of the President of Brazil, and, unfortunately, hugged her and took a photo together. We measured our temperature, but the temperature was normal. Now we will remain in isolation and take a test tomorrow morning to be sure that everything is fine,” the Armenian media quoted Pashinyan as saying. -02D-
