Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonytė says that the control of the use of protective masks outdoors should be strengthened, and warns that if the public does not comply with the established requirements, the obligation to wear masks not only indoors, but also outdoors can be restored .

“We will need more attention to control here, because we would not want to impose a mandatory requirement for everyone to wear masks outdoors, but if we see that there is no other solution, then that decision can be returned at least somewhere,” Šimonytė told reporters on Friday.

He claimed to see gaps in the use of masks when people who are close to each other do not wear masks outdoors.

“I am very sorry, but even at some rally near the Seimas, two citizens can stand next to each other less than two meters apart and both without masks,” said the prime minister.

“I agree with the observation that there are violations. The government has decided that masks are not necessary outdoors when epidemiologically it is not necessary to wear them, when walking with the family or at a sufficient distance, but I have no doubt, there are people who do not meet those requirements, even when filming. by television cameras, “he added. hee

The government allowed not to wear masks outdoors at the end of February if a distance of two meters is maintained between people.
