The highest probability of infection is  in Perm and Voronezh, RBC reported, citing the results of a study by SberIndex. In these cities, the risk of contracting coronavirus is 15% higher than the national average.  Irkutsk and Novosibirsk go after them,   the probability of the disease there is 7% higher than the average in Russia.

      For residents of Khabarovsk, Krasnoyarsk, Chelyabinsk, Omsk and Saratov, the risk of infection is at an average level. The least of all it is in Moscow, Krasnodar and Nizhny Novgorod. Also, the probability is below average in Kazan, Samara, Rostov-on-Don, Ufa, Tyumen, Vladivostok, and St. Petersburg.

      Experts also report that economic dynamics are deteriorating in the main segments of the economy. The fall in consumer spending rose to 2.7% compared to last year (0.8% in September) - citizens changed their spending due to the fear of contracting COVID-19. The service sector suffers the most. The tourism industry remained an absolute outsider throughout the year. After falling by 90% in April, it began to  recover gradually. However, in October,  spendings on tourism began to decline again. SberIndex draws attention to the fact that it is in the tourism sector that the largest number of restrictions continue to operate in connection with the pandemic.
