“The fact that I went and got vaccinated without even thinking, receiving an invitation, does not give me a drop of peace. On the contrary, if I could, I would go back in time and invite vaccine distributors to look for those who need the vaccine the most, ”writes the businessman.

He states that he received an invitation to get vaccinated from the Ambulance chief, who said that the company received more vaccines than people who wanted to be vaccinated; some people were in self-isolation and others refused to be vaccinated.

“To avoid throwing away vaccines, the manager looked for people who wanted to get vaccinated. According to the manager, the company received a total of 21 vaccines, but the company’s employees used less than half. The manager then looked for an urgent way to use them. The list of vaccinated was handed over to those responsible for the hospital, and when it was approved, they invited me to get vaccinated, ”explained the businessman who had been vaccinated in a row.

According to him, such a situation happened because today everyone is confused, tired, anxiously waiting for the situation to improve and safety for their health.

“In such a situation, it is not always possible to maintain common sense. When I received the offer to vaccinate, I was sure that I was not committing a crime. I sincerely apologize to anyone who needs vaccinations much more than me … I understand that it was a error. This lesson is very painful for me “, assured the manager.

The neighbors were outraged by the arrogance

“Living in the Santariškės district, you see everything nearby covid action: people are transported by express, put them in the hallway or outside. And the most terrible thing is that it is completely whistled, ”said a member of the Santariškės settlement community.

In response, J.Pranckevičius wrote in his comment that he was surviving due to his actions.

“Yes, living in the district of Santariškės, I see all the action of” covido “and not really” short “, as they say publicly. Surviving by our recklessness, I do not stop believing that all together, contributing what we can and Sometimes by learning from painful mistakes, we can do a lot. I hope that both my financial support and charitable arts initiatives will contribute to the fight against the virus and provide at least a short respite for those who go to the battlefield every day. Fall Last year, we managed to collect more than 30 paintings by prominent Lithuanian artists, which were given to doctors who fought against COVID-19, ”the doctor wrote.

“I want to warn people not to repeat my mistake. Don’t be too quick to rejoice and take advantage of the vaccination offers if your GP doesn’t have them, ”added the businessman.

He also asked those who plan and organize the vaccination process to send a clear message to all people waiting for the vaccine, whether they should be interested in their own treatment facilities or if they will be notified in advance when they are invited to get vaccinated.

“This would help avoid new misunderstandings,” concluded the businessman.

You will receive a second vaccination will be decided by SAM

“SAM will request a clarification on what to do in this case. The Minister circulated a report: control over the list of people to be vaccinated, so we should probably not vaccinate these people for the second vaccination when we see them on the lists. What the ministry will say on the subject, we will have to do the same. ” 15 minutes T Bartkus said.

Investigate law enforcement
