L. Denutienė says the tests from her and other employees in this department are negative. Therefore, according to the presenter, the outbreak is not related to her birthday.
However, Councilor P. Saulevičius thinks otherwise. It also bothers him that the municipality closed its doors just today.
“If we look back now, it’s been two weeks since March 8. Like the same moment when people start getting sick. The boom started a week after that: municipal employees started getting sick. But that information doesn’t come through. people like that. People complained that they did not know that there was a fireplace in the municipality. And to this day, the municipality has worked. So that people could participate, “P. Saulevičius told news reporters from LNK.
According to the order of the Chief of Operations of the State for Emergencies, the work of the municipality must be organized remotely. Unless the work must be done at the workplace.
Saulevičius says he tried to contact Alvydas Verbickas, director of the municipal administration. Who is also the head of emergency operations in the Varėna district. However, no answer was received as to why the municipality closed the door only in the event of an outbreak.
A. Verbickas allegedly does not answer the phone or answer the messages. P. Saulevičius showed messages to the outraged population in LNK.
“The director of the municipality enters the building without a mask. Everyone knows it and wonders how the head of the operations center behaves. While on Facebook, write about fighting the disease. They themselves have coffee in the office with other managers, just like other managers. It has been full of self-isolation of the people since yesterday “, – politicians read the messages of the population.
LNK was also unable to contact A. Verbickas.
But A. Kašėta, the mayor of the Varėna district, who agreed with the coronavirus, agreed to communicate.
The mayor explains that part of the employees worked remotely, some at the workplace. And the birthday party itself asks to ask about the birthday party.
“I worked remotely that day. I called, as usual, the department heads, babbled with a birthday. But about her birthday celebration, if there was one, you’d better ask the hostess. But I did not receive such knowledge that there would be coffee in the municipality on that occasion ”, explained the mayor of the district.
A. Kašėta assures that he found out about the disease through preventive tests and had no contact with the sick. Says it feels good, just a little throat.
Residents of Varėna say that if the virus really spreads in the municipality due to public holidays, the city authorities should be ashamed, as they should set an example for the residents.

The police have not yet been notified of a possible concentration in the municipality.
