“Most coronavirus patients, who are currently being treated in hospitals or quarantine facilities, have developed mild and moderate symptoms, some of them are asymptomatic as well,” said Amiran Gamkrelidze, the head of the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health (NCDC).

According to Gamkrelidze, the total number of asymptomatic patients stands at 10-15%.

“Asymptomatic patients mostly go to the quarantine areas. On top of that, we have 13 patients in a critical state, of those, five require artificial ventilation. Four of them are from occupied Abkhazia. We are actively assisting our region of Abkhazia. In general, about 70 patients are seriously ill, and the rest are mild, moderate and asymptomatic patients,” said Amiran Gamkrelidze.
