Ivane Chkhaidze: 3-4 thousand children are infected with coronavirus every day in Georgia

According to Ivane Chkhaidze, head of the National Group of Immunization Technical Advisers, 3-4 thousand children are infected with coronavirus every day in Georgia.

As Ivane Chkhaidze explained, the infant infection rate is 15%.

"According to the total statistics of the National Center for Disease Control, the infection rate of children is 15%. 15 out of every 100 infected are children. It is quite possible that this figure will increase even more.

10,000 infected people means that 1,500 children in Georgia are infected with the coronavirus every day. When we have two and three times higher rates than this, it means that every day 3-4 thousand children are infected in Georgia," Ivane Chkhaidze said in Media Center Mtavari.
