When asked if the exclusive police attention is currently being paid to COVID-19-related violations, R. Janavičiūtė made it clear that it is not.
“Violations of this type are being addressed, as well as other violations. Officials are instructed to visit supermarkets, parks or other public places in the area and monitor compliance, respond to reports of non-compliance with quarantine requirements.
Each police institution independently monitors the current situation in the area under its supervision and makes decisions on the monitoring or special inspection of the objects, ”explained the representative of the Police Department.
S.Skvernelis – it is not necessary to increase the horror with your own hands
Prime Minister S.Svvernelis assured that the police and other institutions that oversee compliance with the quarantine regime are working as hard as possible.
“They all are, they have their functions, again [veikia] according to possibilities and scope. You mentioned the same police: neither the quarantine nor the coronavirus stopped other activities that the police must work on. Crime is happening, people need help, control is needed everywhere. Of course they will, but let us understand that they cannot quit all other jobs and exercise this control alone, ”S. Skvernelis told the government during a press conference on Monday.
He emphasized that it is everyone’s responsibility to comply with the restrictions and rules.

“Someone got sick, got sick or sadly lost a loved one or a colleague, so we change our attitude in some different way. And when we don’t see it, there is nothing terrible here. And it’s very scary, you don’t have to increase that fear with your own hands, “said the acting prime minister.
“As long as there is no vaccine, the means to stop the spread of the virus are different. If we think that we cannot comply, in a week, two weeks later, other people will stand here and talk about other prohibitions and restrictions,” said S Skvernelis that the government headed by Ingrida Šimonytė will start working soon.
