Media Review for April 15, 2020

Measures taken against the Corona Virus, the impact of the OPEC + decision on the cost of oil, and a religious fast in the pandemic are the topics of today's media.

The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about operational measures taken to combat the pandemic. The author recalls that in 100 days of the onset of the epidemic, more than 100 thousand people died.

Thanks to preventive measures, the infection is not so widespread in Azerbaijan. With strict adherence to the quarantine regime and discipline, the spread of the virus can be stopped.

Müsavat.com discusses the OPEC + solution and its impact on oil prices. The decision to reduce production to 9.7 million barrels helped prevent price chaos in the oil market and raised the cost of oil by almost $ 10.

However, prices can rise to $ 35-40 only by the end of the year, experts say. It will not be difficult for Azerbaijan to comply with obligations to reduce production, since the country is experiencing a natural decline in production.

The website Sfera.az discusses with doctors the possibility of observing religious fasting during the pandemic, as the month of Ramadan enters on April 25th. Preserving health is more important than fasting under current conditions, since the immune system does not allow fasting during a pandemic, doctors say.

Religious figures also believe that with a weak immune system, fasting will not have the significance that it has.
