The National Center for Disease Control asks companies to help in carrying out the disinfection works in the churches to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Head of the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health Amiran Gamkrelidze told InterPressNews that the Patriarchate of Georgia requested the center to disinfect the churches across the country. Gamkrelidze said they hope private companies will help them in carrying out the disinfection works.

“It is good that solidarity has emerged in the country and many businessmen have expressed their desire to help. We also asked the companies, which register the disinfectants to help the church, do charity and and provide these substances to the church. I do not know, whether or not they will agree to do this charity,” Amiran Gamkrelidze said.
