Are the first vaccines already expected in January?
Health Minister Aurelijus Veryga declared that the first doses of the coronavirus vaccine could reach Lithuania in January.
“I think it is realistic to receive the first doses in January. But that does not mean that all the vaccines will arrive, because in reality we are only going to get some in the second half of next year, because they are in very different stages of development. ”, The minister quoted BNS at a press conference on Tuesday.
A.Veryga emphasized that it will all depend on the manufacturers how to manage the registration and delivery of drugs, and most vaccines must wait later.
Those coming from Denmark will have to be isolated for two weeks.
Veryga said Tuesday that on Wednesday the government will change the quarantine decree, offering 14 days of self-isolation to people who came from Denmark due to a mutation of a rampant coronavirus associated with fur farms.
The minister says that after discussing the situation with the Danish ambassador, there was also information from the World Health Organization that the mutated virus could have spread to other countries.
There is a similar problem in Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden. The government may decide that returnees will also need returnees from these countries.
There will be no special changes to the quarantine regime on Wednesday.
The minister urged traders to follow the instructions, otherwise, he said, the quarantine regime could be tightened.
He mentioned that the provision of space for one person and the availability of hygiene products are not taken into account everywhere.
It is true that the Minister pointed out that there will be no significant changes in the quarantine regime at the moment.
“As for the third quarantine, we have just started the second, so I cannot say if it will be necessary. I cannot say how the Government will decide to extend for the Government. I have no doubt that it will be extended, but how long, I cannot say. “said the minister.
