The COVID-19 (COVID) pandemic has led to unprecedented action and innovation in the US healthcare system; at the same time, it has presented extraordinary challenges and risks.

The Rossiya Segodnya International Information Agency, with support from the Russian Direct Investment Fund and scientific advice from I. M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University, have published the Russian version of the first handbook on coronavirus prevention and treatment. The Handbook was compiled by the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine according to clinical experience.
