It has only been a week since the quarantine, but its positive results can be observed.
“Last week, we still had an increase in the number of cases and the average percentage of new infections detected per week.
But perhaps a good sign is that growth has no longer been exponential, although both the number of cases and the number of hospital admissions has increased, but it has no longer been exponential, which allows us to be perhaps very reserved to see that the situation changes. stabilizes a bit later this week.
As you know, the figures themselves are at least a week behind the measures taken. But we can see and give the first good signs, “he said.
Only one municipality is not red
Mr. Veryga added that in other countries, unfortunately, the situation remains difficult.
“Virtually all of Europe is red, with the exception of some countries: Iceland, Norway and Finland. In other places, morbidity is high and states are introducing new control measures,” said the interim minister.
He added that despite the fact that the quarantine has been announced throughout Lithuania, all but Neringa are “red” when monitoring the indicators of individual municipalities:
“But that’s only because one of the criteria was not met: the absolute physical number of cases was small.”
Loreta Ašoklienė, the country’s leading epidemiologist, also mentioned in the morning that the situation is stabilizing. According to her, although it remains complex and epidemiologically unfavorable, the increase in cases is no longer as fast as a few weeks ago, when the number of diseases increased almost two or three times a week.
The portal tv3.lt recalls that in the morning the president’s main adviser, Simonas Krėpšta, also noticed visible, albeit small, positive changes.
“Currently, it can be said that the quarantine restrictions are working, the development of the pandemic is slowing down. But to get closer to the normal situation, we still have a lot to do. As for the spread of the virus, we are still in a high point and there is still a long way to go to return to normality. But the virus restrictions work and stop the spread of the virus, “he said after the president’s conversation with the Council of Health Experts.
