Russia | Recovery Tracker afflicted by Delta variant
The rapid spread of the Delta variant has resulted in a third wave of Covid-19
infections, almost as severe as the wave that struck the country last winter. But activity has proven resilient: The Recovery Tracker remains above 90,

What you will learn:
- Moscow and St. Petersburg have seen the biggest increases in daily numbers of new Covid-19 cases
- Transport and retail mobility have been almost unaffected by this latest wave
- Overall financial flows and energy consumption have remained above pre-pandemic levels
