The New York Times announced the reliability of its data on coronavirus in the Russian Federation

The American newspaper The New York Times accurately presented information based on official data of Russian agencies and interviews with experts, so it sees no reason to revise the content of its publication about coronavirus in Russia. This was announced on May 14 by Daniel Rhodes, Vice President of Communications of the same media corporation. No facts cited in our article are disputed, she stressed in a letter to TASS. Earlier, recall, the American newspaper published an article The Mystery of Coronavirus explained in Moscow 1700 additional deaths, which claimed that the number of deaths from coronavirus infection in the Russian capital and subjects may be higher than reported by official statistics. Similar information was published by the Financial Times. In Russia, in turn, called the data untrue and declared their readiness to send letters to the editorial office demanding to refute the data on the understatement of mortality due to coronavirus.
