“The coronavirus continues to spread in Lithuania. A particularly threatening situation in several municipalities. The number of infected people in Raseiniai district exceeds 850 per 100,000 inhabitants. In Kelmė – 314, in Šiauliai district – 200. The tense situation is also in the city of Šiauliai, Joniškis, Švenčionys, Plungė, Radviliškis ”, wrote the Prime Minister.
He wrote that, according to the latest data, nearly 60 percent of the “fighting beds” were occupied.
“57% of patients are already treated with COVID-19. The so-called” crib “beds. When we reach 70%, we will be forced to suspend the provision of certain scheduled services so that our doctors can direct resources to treat the new coronavirus, ”he wrote.
The prime minister said that doctors remain paramount in the fight against the coronavirus.
“We must protect them, create the best conditions for them and respect their work. That is why today we decided to pay supplements to the doctors of 5 hospitals who work directly with the virus and allocate additional resources to strengthen the National Center for Public Health and motivate his staff, “the prime minister said on Facebook.
On Wednesday, the government will classify all the country’s municipalities by color.
“We all have to help our doctors, because we will not overcome the insidious virus with their efforts alone. Therefore, strict recommendations for virus management will be given to municipalities in the most dangerous situation in the near future. I urge everyone to follow these rules. On Wednesday, all municipalities will be divided into red, yellow and green groups. “Very detailed and clear recommendations will be given to each group on how to combat the spread of the virus,” the prime minister wrote.
And if these measures do not help, “we will be forced to introduce local quarantines in individual municipalities.”
The Prime Minister recalled that it is safe to vote in elections.
“Fall break for students begins next week. Children will not go to school. Then it will be time for adults to take a break from public life, protecting themselves and others from the spread of the virus. ”Wrote the Prime Minister.
He asked again for the motto “Let’s stay home.”
“It’s time to remember the spring motto” Let’s stay home. “Choose not to participate in unnecessary events. Go only where safety and compliance are guaranteed.
