With the deterioration of the epodemiological situation in Lithuania, experts ask to follow the example of Italy and further expand the use of the passport of opportunity.
A man in a blue blouse shows a store passport to a store security guard and enters the store, but the inspector is suspected. The Lithuanian name and surname are in the passport of an oriental-looking man. It soon turns out that the 49-year-old foreigner tried to break into the store with the passport of a stranger and that could cost him dearly.
The prosecutor went to court and offered to impose a fine of 5,000 euros on the person. We are awaiting a judicial decision, ”says police representative Ramūnas Matonis.
When the police arrived, the foreigner explained that he allegedly had his state passport on another phone, and the Lithuanian, his work supervisor, was photographed in the builders’ car.
“The court decides on a case-by-case basis, assesses a person’s personality, assesses the circumstances of the violation and makes a decision in each case individually, but that fine will likely remain substantial, several thousand euros. These crimes can also threaten the deprivation of a boat for up to three years, ”he continues.
And this is the second time this week that police have launched a pre-trial investigation into an attempt to use someone else’s passport. The third investigation was started due to the strong joke of this Panevėžys resident: “I made this lamb passport. So, with him, you should have every opportunity. Sheep passport, sheep certificate. “
After forging the Aries Baron’s passport, he entered the supermarket like nowhere: “We feel really exceptional rams. It goes, and the lambs are happy to have fun. “
“He probably wanted to ‘improve’ on social media,” says prosecutor Paulius Jasiukaitis.
“It just came to our knowledge then. I want to assure everyone that I have that passport of opportunities. And even in the video report, it can be scanned and verified, so here only the security surveillance that was actually there was verified.” announces Avinas Baronas on its Facebook account.
Panevėžys was summoned by officials for questioning. During it, the man probably defended his version, which was just a montage here. However, the maximum fine for falsifying documents is imprisonment for up to three years.
“We will see how everything ends here for Aries Baron,” says P. Jasiukaitis.
Law enforcement sends a message to everyone: such abuses will not be tolerated.
“It is a completely official document that has legal force and certain rights. And in the absence of those rights and to use them for counterfeiting purposes, entails criminal responsibility ”, adds the prosecutor.
1 million people have the opportunity to collect a passport in Lithuania. 800 thousand. people. About 200,000 of them have not yet activated it. Data analyst Vaidotas Zemlys-Balevičius notes that the wave of vaccinations that emerged in August to remove the passport of opportunities has almost completely subsided.
“At the peak, we had about 100,000 people a week, and now we have about 27 percent, in that sense, somewhere. This is a 5-fold difference, ”says data analyst Vaidotas Zemlys-Balevičius.
And he asks that the example of Italy be followed to continue expanding the use of the passport.
“It’s like a pierced umbrella now. In that sense, you will still be wet, but not as wet as if you were completely without an umbrella, ”he says.
And in Italy, now, without a “green” passport, you will not only reach a restaurant, bar, museum, school or university, but even an open-air event, trains, planes. And as of October 15, it will be mandatory for absolutely all employees in both the public and private sectors.
They will not be fired, but they will be fired. It will be seen as an unjustifiable omission without a justifiable reason. And, for example, in the private sector from the next day, and in the public sector after 5 days, they will not be able to receive more salary until they present that green passport ”, says Daiva Lapėnaitė, a journalist based in Italy. .
Italy, which has learned the painful lessons of the coronavirus, aims to further accelerate vaccination in the country. By the way, 83 percent of people were vaccinated with at least one dose, in Lithuania, only 61 percent.
“Prime Minister Mario Draghi doesn’t say much. He says it is a means for us to really open up the whole country. Live freely “, says D. Lapėnaitė.
However, it seems that the opinion of some people in Lithuania will not change:
“Divide people into castes, into classes.” Some are good, some are bad. “
“They need a passport for opportunities, walking to cafes, restaurants, bars, sports clubs. I need it. And what does an ordinary person need? Are you coming to the store? Buy food? “
“It just came to our attention then. Sitting in a taxi, a must see. I got out of here, I have to show. Now I’m going to the clinic, I have to show up there. It’s absurd here.”
“Scary. Because we are forced to poison some kind of disappointment. Well, impossible. This is how we live” on medicine “. Anything else?”
However, Zigmas Juzumas, deputy director of the Klaipėda Republican Hospital, says that it is precisely because of this part of the Lithuanian approach that all unnecessary operations must be stopped at this hospital and two more new departments have been opened.
“On the last day there were 25 people. 25 Almost 25 people were brought in, 25 of whom needed to be buried. At one point it was a very big burden for the hospital as we had prepared 50 beds, but only at one point we needed to accommodate 65 in those 50 beds. It was really a great stress and a great tension. And it was necessary to suddenly increase the number of beds in the middle of the night, “he says.
The doctor confirms most of those infected, do not vaccinate: “About 90 percent. Patients are not vaccinated, about 10 percent. Vaccinated, they need to be hospitalized.”
And data analyst V. Zemlis-Balevičius is concerned that around 100 thousand people in Lithuania in the age groups of 70 years and over have not been vaccinated: “It is only of these two age groups that we can have around 8,000 deaths and around 20 thousand people in hospitals. “
Last day, 4 people died from coronavirus in Lithuania. Virus 1197 was detected.
