“A new case is the family: a wife has been infected by her husband. We believe that the main source of infection is a person suspected of being murdered and confirmed ill after death. This is the case we reported yesterday. The daughter This co-inhabitant works in a health center and was previously confirmed to have coronavirus in a prophylactic study. Both the woman for whom the coronavirus was confirmed last day and her husband are related to him, “said Ginreta Megelinskienė, Head of the Infectious Disease Management Division of Vilnius Department of NVSC.

“The situation is quite confusing, but after the possible murder, information on the links between those infected became clearer.

Four people have been identified who have had contact, but we are still refining the information, ”said G. Megelinskienė.
