According to Acting Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia, the spread of the infection has been stopped by the regulations imposed since November 28. As Gakharia said at the beginning of the government session, for the first time in recent months there are less than 3,000 cases of infection out of more than 17,000 tests, which gives the government the reason for cautious optimism.

"As you know, today is the 20th day since November 28, when the Council decided to impose targeted restrictions in the country. The number of infections is relatively stable. Moreover, today we can say that for the first time in recent months we have less than 3 thousand cases of infection out of more than 17 thousand tests. This, of course, gives us the reason for cautious optimism. Because this is the first result, the opportunity to achieve the goal - we said that the primary task was to stop the rapid spread, which we managed to do", - Gakharia said.

According to the Prime Minister, today, when the spread of infection in Europe is setting new records, when European states are increasingly tightening New Year restrictions, we must do everything possible to ensure that each of our steps is responsible and reasonable.
