Countries affected with a coronavirus infection are those with a morbidity rate of more than 16 cases per 100,000 population in the past 14 days.

12 countries from which it will be mandatory to isolate for 2 weeks from Monday: Spain, France, Sweden, Belgium, Portugal, Romania, Austria, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Luxembourg, Croatia and possibly Malta.

Malta will be negotiated with colleagues from Latvia and Estonia. It is questionable that the COVID-19 cases also include infected refugees. “The European Center for Disease Prevention and Control has released a report that Malta’s morbidity rate should be treated with caution as it does not reflect the actual situation in the country,” said L. Ašoklienė.

Friday, July 31. data In France the morbidity rate is already 19.

There is and across the border Poland, which has recorded a record number of new cases in recent days. Its indicator so far is 15.7.

L.Ašoklienė did not rule out that if the situation in Poland deteriorates very quickly, the decision on isolation after returning from Poland should be made in the middle of next week, without waiting for the traditional assessment on Friday. Lithuania has already done so: With a sudden increase in the number of cases in Bulgaria and Romania, compulsory isolation was announced in the middle of the week upon returning from these countries.

The incidence of coronavirus infection in Lithuania has increased from 3.7 to 5.7 per week, but we still remain on the list of reliable countries. The indicator for Latvia and Estonia is the same: 2.6.

The Ministry of Health will publish the complete updated list of affected countries later on Friday. It will take effect on Monday.
