PM says strict measures could be reintroduced to combat the pandemic
Public adherence to regulations and protective measures prescribed by the Commandant’s Office may improve the epidemiological situation in the country, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said following the meeting at the Commandant’s Office coordinating the activities for preventing the spread of COVID-19.
“Studies show that the proper use of even home-made face masks may lead to a breakthrough and stop the pace of coronavirus spread,” Pashinyan told at a briefing. He next informed that lockdown measures could be reintroduced if coronavirus cases spike again.
“Inspections are currently held throughout the republic checking both individuals and economic entities. The interregional roads will be strictly monitored to make sure citizens wear masks,” added the PM.
