It is true that I. Šimonytė suggests not to rush to evaluate the management of the Covid-19 crisis, because the pandemic, according to her, “did not end the devil.”
“One thing that, in my opinion, largely determined what happened next was that summer episode that probably contributed a lot to what we have now. The government released the quarantine as soon as it could.
Apparently, I don’t have big complaints about it. But all through that summer, people were able to act like people. They were tired, they wanted to celebrate the holiday, they celebrated the holiday, ”said I. Šimonytė on the management of the Covid-19 crisis in the discussion of the Institute of International Relations and Political Science of Vilnius University on Wednesday.
According to the prime minister, the government led by Saul Skvernelis could prepare for the second wave of Covid-19, which slipped in the fall.
“The government probably had to think very seriously about the episode that will be. There were not many wives who said there would be no episode in the fall. Some had very threatening warnings and it is unfortunate that those threatening warnings, as we see now in the situation, have come true more.
Have we not bought precious time? I keep saying that we have continued to gain precious time, ”said I. Šimonytė.
The prime minister also fears that the population not only lacks confidence in the government and its quarantine decisions, but that the rulers also appear to mistrust the citizens.
“We have an expectation for the people that the people will trust the government, each other, verbally and with suggestions. But even on the part of decision-makers, very often that trust is not enough. Even when we talked about quarantine restrictions, the main question was: what will you do if someone goes somewhere, does not follow, does not do what was ordered? I can’t make everyone keep their word. But it must be said that all I have is a word, a request, ”added I. Šimonytė.
