Turkmenistan promptly took all measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus infection in the country. The Turkmen government and the Ministry of Health and Medical Industry of Turkmenistan have a responsible approach to work in this area, the WHO spokeswoman said.
Earlier, in April this year, Turkmenistan, together with United Nations agencies, developed a Coronavirus Infection Preparedness and Response Plan. The main purpose of the document is to prevent the entry of infection into Turkmenistan. According to WHO data, not a single case of infection with the COVID-19 virus has been recorded in Turkmenistan.
