She said it’s really unclear what summer is in store for her.
“There is a lot of uncertainty, we are waiting for some dates, let’s say July 5. Maybe then something will turn out, if not, it’s some releases postponed until July 19 for 4 weeks, which obviously everyone expects. Because he wants to take a vacation in the summer, ”he said.
A. Černiauskaitė stated that even for people who received both doses of the vaccine, there are no exemptions for travel.
“When you return, you need to take a test, buy a test pack; when you return from the yellow or orange countries, you need 2 tests: the second and the eighth day. From the green countries, only the second day of the test. And from the red list: test and quarantine in the hotel. And self-isolation for 10 days and mandatory tests: additional costs. So when you come to the country, you have to have a negative test, “said the president of the Lithuanian community in the United Kingdom about the travel arrangements in the Info Day program.
He explained that UK authorities claim that the two vaccines only protect against the severe form of the disease and not against the infection itself. So even vaccinated people can get sick and infect other people.
“Therefore, traveling is not a relief,” said A. Černiauskaitė.
The broadcaster said that the vaccination rate in the UK had slowed down for some time.
“However, people are getting vaccinated at that good rate. Because the vaccine is less likely to cause complications, go to the hospital. And the top priority is that even if people do contract the coronavirus and treat it like seasonal flu, they are more likely to get to the hospital, “he explained.
A. Černiauskaitė stated that the vaccination process is moving in a positive direction. And when the releases were announced, the country wants to vaccinate young people before July 19.
And while you wait for the dates listed above, after which the destination of the quarantine release should be clear, it is the number of patients in hospitals that is being monitored. He also said that the Indian-derived delta strain of the coronavirus is currently in and is increasing morbidity rates.
Businesses are also going through a very painful epidemiological situation, said the interlocutor of the program.
“The restaurants, the bars that have suffered a lot since they closed are now open, trying to recover. There are various subsidies and aids to keep employees: 80 percent of salary was paid and the employer could add more. However, the travel industry is more concerned at the moment, ”said A. Černiauskaitė.
Both airlines and travel agencies are in a critical situation, A. Černiauskaitė, president of the Lithuanian community in the UK, told the Info Day program.
