Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal has said the government has no plans to introduce a full lockdown across the country.

"We do not plan to introduce a full lockdown across the country and stop the economy. But as the president said: the only alternative to lockdown is precisely mass vaccination," Shmyhal said at a government meeting on Wednesday.

The prime minister also said that several more regions may soon fall into the "red" zone.
