In the scope of the ‘One door-one test’ surveillance testing campaign, a

on February 11-12, resulting in a detection of four cases (two on February 11
and another two on February 12).
“In the first two days of the testing taken from indirect contacts, four cases of COVID-19 were detected. Therefore, the infection spread may be considered as
relatively low. This is a result of the community's excellent implementation of
simple infection control rules,” said Ts. Ganzorig, Chairman of Government
