Minister of Health of Armenia Arsen Torosyan has posted the following on his Facebook page:

“There are nearly 3,000 doctors who are currently engaged in the actions being carried out to fight against the spread of the coronavirus and the treatment of patients with coronavirus, including 300 doctors treating citizens at isolation sites, 1,700 doctors at medical centers and 1,000 doctors engaged in the implementation of anti-epidemic measures.

They have been living a different life for over a month in order to make sure the virus doesn’t spread to a large number of people. They don’t sleep, don’t eat right and don’t see their families and relatives.

However, they will be powerless, if we don’t put in our efforts in this.

We all need to understand that each of us is responsible for prevention of the spread of this disease.”

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
