S. Skvernelis posted about this on his Facebook account.
“This week, we are seeing a sharp increase in the number of COVID-19 infections in several municipalities. In COVID-19, we have just agreed that on Wednesday the Government will consider decisive measures to prevent the virus where necessary.
We have instructed the Ministry of Health to urgently prepare draft amendments to the legislation. As we have agreed in the COVID-19 management strategy, we will introduce the necessary restrictions only in the individual municipalities with the most threatening situation, and not in the entire country, ”says S. Skvernelis on Facebook.
The Prime Minister does not specify what measures will be applied. According to him, they will be appointed by specialists.
“However, I would like to say in advance that the opening hours of restaurants and entertainment venues should not be reduced in those municipalities where the COVID-19 situation is not a cause for concern. I would also like to say that we will solve problems in specific areas in close cooperation with the local government.
The record number of infections in Lithuania leaves no room for doubt and clearly indicates that we must act quickly and decisively to preserve the health and lives of the inhabitants of the municipalities that have become hotbeds, ”he emphasizes.
He emphasizes on Facebook that the restrictions on physical contact will only apply until we see the virus back off. And in those Lithuanian municipalities where the number of infections is not a concern, life will flow as usual.
