“This is not the first vaccine in my life,” they asked her before the stab if she was worried.

“I hope I don’t have other effects that could theoretically be there, I know of them,” he said. The Prime Minister emphasized that she knew what to expect after vaccination, as she is also vaccinated against other diseases. He stressed that he had never encountered the side effects of vaccines.

What quarantine will take place in April, I still can’t say
At a press conference after the vaccination, I. Šimonytė said he could not yet say how the quarantine regime would be changed further; More information was promised Wednesday.
“Next week, the government will have to consider in any case which regime to extend the quarantine to April, and that discussion will probably not be that simple because, as you can see, the situation has not really improved in any way,” he said. saying.
I. Šimonytė emphasized that last week’s evaluations confirm that in some parts of Lithuania there are many more so-called British strains of the virus.
“We will make those decisions along the way with real caution in all the conditions that will be offered, but today I have neither the will nor the power to share any promises so far,” he emphasized.
“People are tired, they want to go back to normal life”
The prime minister said Monday she regretted that the AstraZeneca vaccine lacked confidence for some reason.
“We can see that objectively from the vaccination data,” he added.
The prime minister did not rule out that people who do not doubt the AstraZeneca vaccine will have the opportunity to get vaccinated before their turn.
According to I. Šimonytė, it was noted last week that confidence in the AstraZeneca vaccine is declining.
“I had no doubt that the decision of the EEA (European Medicines Agency – aut.) Would clear up the doubts, it was. Someone will have those doubts, but I have those doubts. I said the whole time I was confident, I was ready to get my turn, I really would have managed to protect that turn. But after the tension of last week, we made such a decision that it would be valuable to dispel the doubts that managers will stick with some tastier vaccine, just to take and vaccinate, ”said the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister made it clear that vaccine delivery schedules are not happy yet, we will receive much less of the same AstraZeneca vaccine in the first half of the year.
“It is not a one or two percent cut, we are talking about a quarter or a fifth,” he said.
In the second quarter, according to the prime minister, Lithuania should receive larger quantities of Pfizer vaccine.
“However, so far we only have reliable data on the April supply. Again, whether that remaining quantity will come in consistently in May, June or it will arrive at the end of June, which will certainly make it more difficult to vaccinate in mid-summer for logistical reasons. Those restrictions still exist “, emphasized the Prime Minister.
According to I. Šimonytė, the Johnson & Johnson vaccine will not be supplied in large quantities at first.
“I would like very much, the interest is common here, not only for the President, the Government, but also for the entire European Union,” said the Prime Minister, when asked if she agrees with President Gitan Nauseda that still there are opportunities. vaccinate 70%. population before July 6. – People are tired, they want to return to normal life faster, there is no other way. We will do our best to transplant what we have to the people of Lithuania as soon as possible. And unfortunately, how many of those quantities will not depend to a large extent on Lithuania, how much on the producers, on certain coordinated actions of the EU, I will use an ugly word: put pressure on the producers ”.
On Monday, President Gitanas Nausėda also received the first AstraZeneca vaccine.
Seimas spokesperson Viktorija Čmilytė-Nielsen and Health Minister Arūnas Dulkys will also be vaccinated on Monday.
The decision to vaccinate the top leaders, ministers and members of the country’s Seimas was made by Health Minister Arūnas Dulkys last Thursday, when he renewed the vaccination with the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Attend Tuesday afternoon During the government’s half hour in the Seimas, A. Dulkys called his doubts about the AstraZeneca vaccine emotions and even stressed that as soon as he can, and he himself will be vaccinated with this particular vaccine.
Therefore, many were surprised that only a few hours later, the minister called a press conference and announced that, on the recommendation of the State Agency for Drug Control (IECC), stops vaccination with AstraZeneca.
He did so two days before the pending decision of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on the vaccine.
Thursday night the Agency has ensured that the vaccine is safe, reason why the minister announced that the vaccination with her would resume from Friday morning.
