As for animal products coming into the country, the epizootic situation is under control.

In turn, the Chief of the Sanitation and Epidemiology Sector, Viktor Gasimov said in an interview with Turan that the epidemiological situation in the country is stable.
"WHO has included Azerbaijan in the list of countries with the lowest risk of the spread of the Ebola virus. In turn, the Ministry of Health is taking the appropriate preventive measures. We have enough essential medicines," he said.
