Press Review for September 17
The fight against the pandemic, Russia's violation of the OPEC+ agreement, and the ineffectiveness of strict quarantine are topics of today's media.
The Azerbaijan newspaper continues to write about the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. In the world, 30 million people have already been infected, and the number of deaths reaches 940 thousand.
The disease, for which a vaccine has not yet been found, is expected to rise in Europe. Georgia and Israel have already announced the start of the second wave of the pandemic.
In Azerbaijan, the level of infection and mortality, in comparison with other countries, is significantly lower.
In the country, 56% of those infected are in Baku. The author notes that the level of infection in the country has been stable for almost two months, and the sanitary and hygienic situation is satisfactory.
The website Bizimyol.info.az writes about Russia's violation of the agreement to cut oil production. In August, Russia did not fulfill the OPEC+ agreement. Russian oil companies were producing 9.04 million barrels per day, which was a violation of the agreement.
The OPEC+ countries produced 22.07 million barrels of oil per day in August. Most of all, the agreement was violated by Iraq; this country is considered the main culprit in the fall in oil prices. It is quite possible that Iraq will not be represented in this organization from 2021.
The website Yeniavaz.com writes that strict quarantine is ineffective in the fight against COVID-19. Moreover, experts say, strict quarantine is harmful.
A long stay in a state of physical inactivity during the quarantine period gives negative results, experts say.
