Citizens should not consider easing restrictions as a victory over coronavirus. Such a statement made today the spokesperson of the Prime Minister Irakli Chikovani, while commenting the first phase of easing quarantine restrictions.

“Our citizens should not perceive the process of lifting certain restrictions as a victory over COVID-19, this is just the first stage and opportunity that we should use wisely and we should all protect the social distance, we should all ensure maximum vigilance so that the virus does not spread in our country.

The first phase of lifting restrictions and opening the economy has already started. This means that from today the movement of private cars and taxis, online shopping, delivery services and open agrarian markets are allowed in the country. Besides, individuals may enter and exit four major cities of Georgia: Tbilisi, Rustavi, Batumi and Kutaisi on April 27-28, if and when they are returning to their actual places of domicile”, - once again explained Irakli Chikovani.
