    The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine decided yesterday to introduce emergency throughout the country and to extend quarantine to April 24 due to the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The decision was made at a regular government meeting on March 25, according to Hromadske International.

    "We are continuing quarantine and introducing emergency in the state of Ukraine throughout the territory for 30 days until April 24, 2020," said Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.
