The fifth wave of coronavirus affects not only ordinary mortals, but also the leaders of the regions – over the past month, every seventh Russian governor has been ill with COVID-19. This was reported by Kommersant, adding that in general, during the pandemic, more than 60% of both current and former heads of regions fell ill with covid.

At the same time, some of the governors fall ill with the coronavirus again. These are the head of the Kemerovo region Sergey Tsivilev, Igor Kobzev (Irkutsk region), Viktor Tomenko (Altai Territory) and others.

Among the lucky ones who did not get sick with COVID-19 even once are the governors of Moscow and St. Petersburg Sergey Sobyanin and Alexander Beglov, the governor of the Moscow region Andrey Vorobyov, the president of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov, the heads of Chechnya and Crimea Ramzan Kadyrov and Sergey Aksenov.

The “invulnerability” of a number of regional leaders is due to vaccination, including repeated vaccination. In particular, as the press service of the Governor of the Magadan Region Sergey Nosov explains, he was one of the first to “vaccinate, revaccinate and revaccinate.”
