Of course, there are some things that still need to be discussed, like the communication capacity of a family farm, the restriction between cities, and I don’t think this should be a 100 percent strict measure either, as there will be all kinds of cases to be solved. . mother, it can be either way.

The second reason is probably or maybe the third after reducing deaths, after reducing morbidity, probably the third objective should be to reduce, pay attention to the emotional and psychological state of people, because I see very serious potential problems if we do not allow that Those lonely people communicate especially for six weeks.
We have to pay special attention here and find a mechanism in a few days on how these people can get support in a few days, how they can communicate with them, ”said the politician on the program.
