In an effort to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, the Ukrainian government has shut down subways and limited the number of passengers allowed on the same public land transport to 10.
But it hasn’t helped with social distancing.
On March 18, the first day when the new restrictions came into force, people crowded bus stops all over Kyiv trying to make their way to work. The next day, the situation repeated.
As of March 20, Ukraine has registered 27 confirmed cases of coronavirus, three of which were fatal, while one patient recovered.
Worldwide, COVID-19 has been detected in over 259,000 people. The infection killed over 10,000 people.
