A senior representative spoke of a big problem: when I learned of his earnings, I was horrified

When asked about opportunity passports at the beginning of the program and whether there is enough information for older people about them and how to obtain them, G. Makaravičienė assured that there is a great lack of information.

“There is not enough information for sure, but the Minister of Social Security had invited us for an interview last week because we did not know what and how to do, where to buy those passports. They explained it to us because we work in a territorial way, it is not a problem for everyone in the district, in the countryside, in the cities, everyone listens to you and helps you, and remote areas do not have that information and we do not. that relevant information.

Whenever we were introduced, I gave him a team because we have our representative office in each district, elected presidents who work with those people and give us reports on economic and financial activities at the end of the year. Let’s say there are twenty-one elders in Vilnius and there are so many representative offices where members of our association live and work in that district. And we just started explaining to people last week: you don’t want to lie, because we didn’t know ourselves, “the woman said on the show.

Vaccination processes evaluated

He also said there was a lack of effort to vaccinate people.

All the tools available are good. I posed the question to him why he gathers everyone together and takes them to the elections, why can’t he vaccinate people then. He replied that there is no transportation even though the school buses are parked. That was the talk last fall. And in pharmacies, very good, because our people usually go to pharmacies, buy a lot of medicines and are closer to home, but all the tools are good, they are available ”, assures the interlocutor.

Of course, as the representative of the elderly observes, the most difficult are in remote areas, on individual farms.

“Those mayors know those areas very well, they are very willing to help, the elderly in the elderly. They talk to people, they help, I also talk to people; it is important that people do not remain in the dark, because in rural areas most people live alone and children are not left behind in a good life ”.

When asked how he evaluates proposals to encourage people to get vaccinated, for example with cash benefits, G. Makaravičienė assured that most older people have already been vaccinated.

“You can say that almost everyone (older people) has been vaccinated. It is only in our time that there are so many kinds of strange diseases that sometimes prevent people from getting vaccinated, and not all diseases allow people to get vaccinated. There are allergies, bronchial asthma, blood circulation, so you can’t. GPs could help with this and talk to a GP because people don’t know what to do because everything is written for the GP in the medical history. If a person cannot be vaccinated and is at risk, it is dangerous. I know it is not easy to reach the GPs, but they consult. “

I received rally invitations

When asked how she evaluated the past rally and the unrest, the main spokeswoman emphasized that human rights were very important, but that they should be discussed and defended in a civilized way.

“I am very against all kinds of things … Of course, people have the right to demand their rights, they must, if they interfere in life, that is the way to go, but they must be treated in a way.” civilized path, legal, not bitter. What do those things look like? And something very unpleasant when he got there … No matter what they were there, with that gas, he started spraying. Couldn’t this question have been resolved in another way? And why it happened, it didn’t happen in a day, it matured. When I heard the comments of the security chief on television, he said that we had reported in February that the problem was maturing, but perhaps no one reacted to that terrible disease, for the crown. Refugees have also begun to be brought in, perhaps they did not react or did not manage, but the best thing would be for our commanders to stop interfering in the affairs of foreign states, to look at their people, such a small state, what will it do? teach them to live? He’s already mad at everyone because he’s mad at the Chinese. “

When asked if an invitation had been received for seniors to join, the interviewee confirmed this.

“It was. Many invitations. I said that this matter should be dealt with in a civilized manner and that the elderly, if you want, I will not stop everyone, but to go there and shout is low. I would be ashamed to shout and stay there. I never went and I will not go.” .

When asked what the biggest problems for older people are, the woman mentioned prices.

“It is a big problem that no one is holding back the price increases, their wishes. We asked them when they increased the prices of heat, gas, electricity, why they did not care what their profits were. We have a lot of retirees that to Sometimes they pay for all the services and buy medicines and they cannot live without them, it leaves them up to one hundred euros a month, it is still good that the two of them stay, and seventy more. How to survive with such pensions with us? Now the biggest problem is prices and I heard that the government will not interfere in marketing. How can you say that. It means that those poor people will pay taxes and get profits and dividends for themselves. When I looked at their profits, I was horrified. “

“We have a lot of intelligent, intelligent and educated people. It is not just bread, oil and milk that we need. We want to go to the theater, to the concert. Of course, I write letters, sell us at reduced prices and some leave, but others cannot. go, ”said G. Makaravičienė.
