“Probably next week it will be possible to talk about how many of these restrictions really work or do not affect the number of new cases. Yes, the number of new cases is very high and it is no secret. It has been that way for some time.
We do the tests because we have 20 percent. positive tests, it is clear that it does not show the real situation for a long time.

“We will monitor the situation every day, assess it and make decisions based on it,” said I. Šimonytė.
