Offers to try

We know that this will not be an easy process in all of Lithuania. In my opinion, it would be possible to test the models with us, because our lowest morbidity is in the municipality in central Lithuania. This is a suitable municipality for testing, if you draw the right conclusions here, it would be possible to assume that a similar situation will exist in other parts of Lithuania, ”said the mayor of Jurbarkas district.
