The Russian authorities have reported 25,781 new coronavirus infections on Monday, Oct. 4, 2021 the largest daily tally since early January. The state coronavirus task force also registered 883 new deaths. The surge in cases comes as vaccination rates in the country remain stagnantly low and the government shuns imposing tough restrictions to stem the spread of the virus.
