“The opinion of the president on new actions to manage the pandemic is fragile, we see that other types of pandemics are rampant in other countries, but the situation in Lithuania is improving in a week and it is in this environment that it is necessary to find a new safe balance between relief from quarantine and the growth of additional infections.
According to the President, the pandemic situation currently allows us to look for some safe ways to partially relax the quarantine requirements and focus on the safest areas that require greater mitigation, ”said the representative. As he explained, this concerns small businesses and the beauty industry.
“In Lithuania as well as in other countries, the smallest entrepreneurs suffer the most from the pandemic, so it is necessary to find ways to operate this segment safely, avoiding additional waves of infection,” he added.
According to him, small companies are currently absorbing the main quarantine blow and during that period it is very important for companies.
“Without question, all stages of mitigation must be weighed and performed responsibly.
There are two possible alternatives: on the one hand, we have different situations in the country’s municipalities and we have municipalities with significantly lower contagion rates, a certain territorial distribution is possible, and on the other, very high protection measures, such as the food industry. beauty. what we have now in dentistry is looking for ways to prevent the spread of the virus while operating safely, ”said S. Krėpšta.
The spokesperson also hinted that the quarantine for education will be eased.
“In fact, the education sector is one of those where prolonged quarantine has long-term consequences for both educational outcomes and psychological well-being, which is why it is necessary to look for ways to act safely.
One of the roads is the territorial road. We know that we currently have 15 municipalities with a contagion rate of less than 200 in 14 days, and in other places the situation is worse, so territorial liberalization is possible.
Another aspect of education, which has been decided, is to vaccinate teachers and thus provide additional protection specifically for teachers, ”he said.
