In connection with the increase in the number of cases of infection in Tbilisi, restrictive measures may be tightened, – said Marina Endeladze, Head of Boxed Ward of Tbilisi Hospital of Infectious Diseases.

“It’s not my call, but restrictive measures may be tightened in Tbilisi if such growth is maintained. We see that when the measures were tightened before September 1, we had almost no increase. Accordingly, the government may decide on this. It is not a matter for me to decide”, – Marina Endeladze said.
