Giorgi Gakharia: The political activity that is taking place in the streets will accelerate the process of reaching the peak - the situation will be more difficult than we expected

We are entering a new phase, today we already have more than 2400 new cases of coronavirus infection. Given the ongoing political processes in the streets and the dynamics of the spread of the virus in Europe, it seems that growth will continue, this is a fact and we must be ready for it, - said Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia at a meeting of the Interagency Coordination Council.

The Prime Minister stressed the importance of maximum mobilization of all relevant agencies to take the necessary measures, including in terms of targeted restrictions to become more effective.

"Of course, the political activity that is taking place in the streets will greatly accelerate the process of reaching the peak with us. The situation will be more difficult than we expected, because the mobility caused by street rallies is certainly directly related to the rapid increase in infection. Therefore, it is necessary to fully mobilize absolutely all ministries and relevant agencies. In addition, of course, we do not change the strategy of adaptation, but in parallel with the adaptation we have to think what might be a package of targeted restrictions that would be even more effective. We are not talking about systemic restrictions across the country, but targeted restrictions", - said the Prime Minister.
