In this country, as of Sunday, morbidity exceeds 16 cases per 100,000. population cap, but the government will make decisions on whether to impose a fourteen-day self-isolation requirement for travelers from the country only on Friday.
Regarding the decisions, I would like to say that the Government has decided to approve the list of countries affected every Friday, which will take effect on Mondays. The question would no longer be for me. But, if you notice, even the Lithuanian indicators change at least twice a day in recent days. There is a risk of confusion when we start (making decisions) twice or more, ”said R. Lingienė.
The specialist still does not see the point of making hasty decisions.
“If people know and are interested, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has released information to comply with all security measures when traveling to Poland. We, as epidemiologists, can say even more: if we can, let’s postpone those trips. Why not I know what kind of miracle must happen, so that when I go to Poland on Monday, I no longer have to isolate myself when I return, “said R. Lingienė.
The specialist pointed out that the situation in this country is “extremely unfavorable” and is deteriorating.
“Today’s and yesterday’s figures do not differ for the better,” said R. Lingienė.
