We have demonstrated that the Order of the Ministry of Public Health “On the reorganization by means of the addition of state institutions”, 01.02.2019 ¹ 264 violated a single system of epidemiological supervision. In case of its fulfillment, the system will not comply with the international standard approaches to the issues of the organization of national system of sanitary protection of state border and will not solve the tasks of the international importance for the prevention of infectious diseases bringing.
We have substantiated a necessity of the creation of a single Center for biological safety under the authority of the Ministry of Public Health of Ukraine according to the international standards by the example of the developed countries. The Center will carry out the practical and sanitary activities in the sphere of biosafety and sanitary protection as a part of state policy.
