Preventive and anti-epidemic measures are being carried out in Kyrgyzstan to prevent the spread of seasonal influenza and acute respiratory viral infections (ARI). Special attention is being paid to schools and kindergartens, as mass interaction among children in these organizations can facilitate the rapid spread of viruses.
