The approval of the registration of the third wave of coronavirus, the reasons for the high cost of drugs in pharmacies, the likelihood of price increases in the car market are topics of today's media.
The website Yenisabah.az quotes the comment of the professor of medicine Adil Geybulla regarding the third wave of coronavirus. In his opinion, the increase in the number of infected people is due to the negligent attitude of people towards this disease. It is necessary to strengthen educational work in this direction.
To date, over 200 strains of mutations of the COVID-19 virus have been identified. The professor considers vaccination to be compulsory. If 70-75% of the population is vaccinated, then herd immunity is formed.
Currently, it is necessary to limit contacts, intensify vaccination, and tighten quarantine rules, he said.
The website Bizimyolinfo.az analyzes the situation with medicines in pharmacies. The author claims that the need for medicines has increased since the pandemic.
In large city pharmacies, the price of medicines is one, and on the outskirts of the city, the price is different. In addition, drugs that used to cost a penny are now sold under a different name 10 times more expensive. Medicines important for raising immunity have become scarce, and if they can be found, they are very expensive.
As for syrups, they cost at least 19-20 manats. Pharmacies claim that these are prices set by the Tariff Council. The latter, in turn, declares that he did not take any decisions to increase the prices of medicines.
The website Mətbuat.az discusses the situation in the automobile market with the expert Eldaniz Jafarov. According to him, there has been activity in the used car market lately. Their prices are expected to rise by 5-10%. This increase is seasonal and unrelated to other factors. As for new cars, prices are stable, except for some brands the cost has increased by 2-5%.
