Armenia’s Minister of Health Arsen Torosyan took to Facebook on Tuesday to again warn of the worst-case COVID-19 scenario in the country.

“Yesterday I talked about a scenario of the spread of coronavirus disease, which fortunately has not happened yet. And we must do our best to ensure that this never happens,” Torosyan wrote.

In such a scenario, the total number of coronavirus cases is forecast to reach 524,032, of which 26,202 cases are expected to be critical.

At peak occupancy 12,445 beds will be needed.

Armenia has 12,000 beds overall, with 1,550 beds provided for coronavirus patients at the moment, Torosyan said.
