A two-time Olympic champion living in Canada noted that people there are worried about the danger of coronavirus infection. This opinion was expressed by TASS two-time Olympic champion, Stanley Cup finalist and world champion Igor Kravchuk.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_vzTm7vh-8″ title=”Memorable Moments – Igor Kravchuk Goal – 05/02/1998″][vc_column_text]The suspension of the season due to the threat of the NHL coronavirus was announced on Thursday. League commissioner Gary Bettman said the league intends to finish the season.
“I don’t think that the NHL is losing money now, because the matches will be postponed. The league may lose money, if the games are canceled at all, then it will be necessary to fill in the broadcast, which has already been sold,” said Kravchuk.
“This is absolutely the right decision, since possible contact at stadiums is reduced, and by reducing it you reduce the possibility of spreading the virus. It is unclear how much this will drag on, apparently, to the first antidote that will appear on the market,” he added.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”471,472″ img_size=”611×320″][vc_column_text]Kravchuk, who lives in Canada, described what measures are being taken there to combat the coronavirus. “People are worried, precautions are being taken, reminders are being sent on how to reduce or protect yourself from the possibility of infection. Parents are strongly advised to bring their children to school by car, if possible, and not use public transport. Children should have a bottle with an antiseptic, wash constantly hands, don’t shake hands hand in hand, ”he stressed.
“There is no panic, but all the antiseptics were bought in stores. Naturally, television and radio constantly inform about this,” Kravchuk added.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”blue” style=”shadow” border_width=”10″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
