"I am absolutely against bringing the country to a standstill or
limiting its functioning", said President Yushchenko in his interview
with Channel 5, according to the presidential press office.
Victor Yushchenko stressed that he would like
the Government to apply adequate measures, rather than PR events.
According to the President already in April the World Health
Organization warned that the flu spread has started in the world.
The
President noted that every country has taken measures to prevent
epidemics. "To be prepared is the duty of every Government, every
doctor", said Victor Yushchenko, adding that in his opinion, Ukraine
failed to prepare to the outbreak of flu.
