This number of cases in the Lazdijai district municipality almost doubled the number of coronavirus patients, from the previous 24 cases to 42.

In all, there were thirty youth and five leaders on the camp shift.

Meanwhile, Ausma Miškinienė, mayor of the Lazdijai district municipality, who visited the young campers on the territory of the Nieda tourist farm in Kapčiamiestis, where the classes were held, says that she is “a living example that the coronavirus vaccine really works. “

“At the end of the camp, together with the municipal communication specialist, we visited the young campers, who are students from the educational institutions in our district. At that time, none of the campers felt any signs of the disease, they became apparent after the end of the camp. I immediately isolated and signed up for the PCR test. We received responses on Thursday morning, neither I nor my colleague caught it, but it is very painful due to the illness of up to eighteen campers, ”said A. Miškinienė.

The Lazdijai district municipal council director says she has no doubt that being vaccinated has helped her avoid a dangerous disease.

According to preliminary data, most of the sick youth summer camp campers had not been vaccinated against the coronavirus.

It is not yet clear which was the original home, which is currently being interpreted by health specialists from the Lazdijai District Municipality and employees of the Alytus Public Health Center.

“After today’s results, we will probably be the sickest municipality. The consolation is that the outbreak is at the hotspot, which means we’ll catch up with contacts, get people back, and hopefully be okay again. It is bad when we do not know who is sick or what their contacts are. Therefore, once again, I urge everyone to get vaccinated, because this will really reduce the risk of getting sick and prevent a serious course of the disease. As I mentioned, I am a living example of this, ”said A. Miškinienė, mayor of the Lazdijai district municipality.

According to the latest data, in the Lazdijai district municipality a total of 42 people have coronavirus, 890 have recovered and 130 people are in self-isolation.
