“Apparently, if all Kaunas turns blue, it is unlikely that I am something exceptional,” said A. Veryga.
The minister also evaluated new coronavirus registries, and the National Public Health Center (NVSC) announced around 603 new cases on Sunday, and the information provided in the morning ranged to about 400 new cases.
“It is a very natural result to see how we live. And what an idea? Too bad that the numbers keep growing, “said the minister, evaluating the latest statistical information.
Asked by the current opposition about the inaccuracies in such figures, the minister said that specialists were working hard.
“Over the weekend, the NVSCs always had less capacity, so they just can’t confirm those cases. Too bad that lower number was released that morning. Maybe there’s the only bad thing here, maybe we had to wait,” said A. Veryga on NVSC’s work.
“There is no need to seek elections here,” said the politician.
“When those numbers grow to 600, then they will double to 1200. Of course, they will grow. If we do not get in line and we still want to celebrate the holidays, it is clear that they will grow. They cannot stop growing. “If we want to run everywhere and not get sick, that is not the case,” said the politician.
The minister assured that universal quarantine is not yet needed, since the figures are extremely good in some municipalities of the country.
“Why post that quarantine there?” Veryga asked.
The minister said that the work of the polyclinics will not be artificially restricted.
“There will be no coercive measures. The only measure that operates centrally after the local quarantine is announced is to restrict visitors. And everything else happens naturally, if doctors get sick, they don’t accept patients. And the other scenario It is related to hospitals, when the treatment units for coronavirus patients are expanded there, there will no longer be any further, ”said the Minister.
The government may consider the issue of quarantine in Vilnius and Kaunas on Monday, says Health Minister A. Veryga.
“In the COVID-19 committee (to be considered by the SNB), the government can meet and decide on the quarantine in those cities,” the minister told reporters at the Peasant Headquarters on Sunday.
The municipalities of Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda, as well as the municipalities of Vilnius, Širvintos, Šilalė, the districts of Trakai and Telšiai are included in the red zone on Friday.
