Wearing of a facemask is one of the protective steps to carry out preventive measures including in form of the fine. This should not be a burden to the public — Anri Okhanashvili, Chairman of the Parliamentary Legal Affairs Committee claimed.

However, Okhanashvili did not confirm the information that 100-GEL fine will be imposed for violation of rule for wearing a medical facemask.

Okhanashvili said that a project was being prepared where all the rules in prevention of the spread of novel coronavirus would be outlined.

“It is not our target to penalize someone. But we have to protect the society from those who disregard life and health of others,” MP said.
