Amiran Gamkrelidze: If this dynamics is maintained, no educational process or elections will be threatened

If this dynamics is maintained, no educational process or elections will be threatened, - Amiran Gamkrelidze, head of the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health, said after the Coordination Council meeting.

According to him, if we follow all the recommendations given by the representatives of the healthcare sector, we may not have the second wave of the virus in Georgia.

"Let's follow the recommendations of the healthcare sector, and if we all do so, most likely we will not have the second wave. However, the situation we are now seeing in some restaurants, or on the beaches, should be changed and we should follow the recommendation of wearing masks in public institutions. Until now, Georgians have had a very good obedience over the last 3-4 months, and that’s why the rate of infection is relatively low in our country than in other countries. If this dynamics is maintained, no educational process, elections or anything else will be threatened.

However, if we do not take care of our joint achievement and if we have the same freedom as we had last year, then there will be a risk, of course, of worsening the epidemic situation”, said Amiran Gamkrelidze.
