On Wednesday, S. Skvernelis, a member of the Lithuanian Farmers and Greens Union faction, raised in the Seimas the question of whether it would not be worthwhile to vaccinate all Seimas members of the Covid-19 so that they could live again. . , not remote, work. S. Skvernel himself has already received a vaccine against the coronavirus.
“The spirit of the Seimas is in this room, these meetings, lively discussions, discussions, disputes, finally, which is inevitable. I would like to suggest or ask if it does not seem appropriate to take the initiative, as president of the Seimas, the leader, at least to get the opinion of the members of the Seimas so that we can work in the Seimas in a normal way of life.
I mean vaccination. In fact, the situation is completely different from what it was at the beginning. Many groups in society have already been vaccinated, many have fallen ill. Maybe it still makes sense to members of the Seimas who want to get vaccinated. So are the members of the Government. And we could work here without any fear as all parliaments work, “suggested S. Skvernelis in the Seimas.
However, Seimas Spokesperson V. Čmilytė-Nielsen pointed out that she does not think it is appropriate to vaccinate Seimas members until the vaccine has received the group of society for which it is needed.
“I think there are still many groups, groups of people, groups in society, people at risk who are waiting for the vaccine. And apparently we should look at that big picture and not rush to overtake those who need the vaccine the most, ”Seimas Spokesperson responded to S. Skvernelis.
It also had the support of Prime Minister I. Šimonytė. According to her, the vaccination will be open to the general public very soon.
“I really think there is not much to look forward to when it is possible to offer the general public on a much broader scale. Now the priority is age groups, that is, people aged 60 and over and people with chronic diseases.” said I. Šimonytė.
