Iran Press/Iran news: "The government is doing its best to deal with this crisis, but it should not affect people's daily lives," the president in a televised address, said and added, "Our effort is to make people's lives not become an unbearable critical situation so people's needs like electricity, water and gas should be met."
Rouhani went on to say, some think that only one ministry is fighting the Coronavirus, but I have to tell them that the whole government is involved and all ministers do their jobs.
"Today, the armed forces, municipalities, the media for Tele-education are all confronting Coronavirus," he said.
The president also demanded people to use the app provided by Health and Telecommunication Ministry to use for statistics on Coronavirus and other applications to get things done.
"We are aware that people are under economic pressure which, of course, will be compensated later," he added.
Hassan Rouhani asked people not to care about rumors and added, "These rumors sometimes are in cyberspace and sometimes on television. Rumors should not disturb people's spirit of resistance. Fear and anxiety are more dangerous than corona.
The president also called for full public cooperation to eliminate the Coronavirus and said, "I do not want to say the virus is not important but do not make a drama out of it. My last saying has two sections the first one is the efforts of Health ministry and its staff and the next section is people. I ask people to follow the hygienic rules and regulations,” the official stated.
The president noted, "Some say to ban the city entrance some say do not. We must ban the entrance of cities that have been ordered and defined by the Covid-19 Headquarters."
Rouhani highlighted, "By staying at home and less commute we would be safe. The tough days will be gone, we again will start our normal activities soon, we will go to holy shrines like ever. I hope to have a healthy, safe and sound New Year."
According to the latest Iranian official report 8,042 people have been infected with coronavirus and 291 people have lost their lives to the fatal virus.
Also, 2,731 people have recovered and been dismissed from medical centers, which shows a great increase.
