😷🚫 Mandatory mask regime in Georgia, despite the increase in the number of cases of covid-19, will not be introduced in the summer.
According to the chief infectious disease specialist Tengiz Tsertsvadze, "Georgian society is not set up for protective measures - neither for vaccination, nor for wearing masks, which means that we need to come to terms with the fact that the number of cases will grow."
ℹ️ Over the past week, the number of new cases of infection in Georgia has increased by 2.5 times, and up to 700 new cases are recorded per day.

🇷🇺↔️🇬🇪 The Russian State Duma allowed the possibility of lifting the visa regime for Georgian citizens and returning direct flights.
"I think it's time to cancel the visa regime and restore air traffic. We will make every effort to cancel or simplify the visa regime this year," said Kazbek Taisaev, First Deputy Chairman of the Committee on CIS Affairs and Relations with Compatriots of the State Duma of the Russian Federation.
ℹ️ The visa regime between the countries was introduced in 2000, and in September 2008, after the war, Georgia severed diplomatic relations with the Russian Federation, but four years later, in 2012, the visa regime for Russians was canceled.
✈️ Direct flights between the countries have been closed since July 2019 at the Russian initiative due to anti-Putin protests and actions in Tbilisi.

👮🏻‍♂️💉Together with the resumption of the topic of covid in June, news about vaccination comes, but this time not from the Ministry of Health, but from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
A nurse was detained in the Samegrelo region for forging information for electronic databases about an allegedly vaccinated for 300 lari ($100). At the moment, 15 citizens are known to have used this “service”, but the investigation is ongoing and the number of people may increase.
For this malfeasance, a physician faces 3 to 5 years in prison.

👮🏻‍♂️❗️👩🏻 The first half of the year in Georgia is especially marked by crimes against women: murders and attempts on wives, including public ones, unfortunately, have become a monthly phenomenon.
Yesterday, a man with a knife attacked his ex-wife in the center of Zugdidi, in front of common children. The murder was interrupted by passers-by and police officers. This week in the capital, a man killed his wife with a hammer. Last week in Kutaisi, a husband killed his wife right on the street. In May of this year, two cases occurred in Tbilisi at once when husbands attacked their wives with knives: one of the women was killed in front of the children on the bus, her husband stabbed her ten times. The second was injured at a bus stop - she was saved.
ℹ️ Domestic violence in 2021 ranks second (!) in Georgia among all crimes committed - 4100 (only 72% were solved). It is not customary to talk about it publicly, but in private conversations, many say that this problem exists in society.
