“One of the conditions for isolation is facilitated: people who have to isolate themselves when they return from abroad find it easier to isolate themselves, they can leave their place of isolation and walk, for example, and walk a certain distance of no more than one kilometer, but they are not allowed to walk to mass meetings, that is, to shopping malls, restaurants, cafes and similar places, “said the head of the NVSC Vilnius Department at the press conference.

Health Minister Aurelijus Veryga later added that this procedure will apply to all people in self-isolation.

“If a person needs to be isolated, then those rules really apply to everyone who needs isolation,” he added.

R. Lingienė also said that returnees from abroad will no longer be tested for coronavirus, and that they will be able to travel to the place of isolation by any means of transportation, as they will no longer need municipal transportation.
