In Shuluta, Russia, local authorities have taken drastic measures to enforce the quarantine imposed on 390 residents after the discovery of 37 cases of coronavirus.
Trenches have been dug around the village to block roads and lanes and prevent cars from entering and leaving the village. Only the main road has been preserved to allow the passage of ambulances and supply trucks.
The epidemic would be linked to the organization of a shamanic ritual in early June during which a sick woman would have infected the ten participants.
