"The Coordinating Council has decided to involve representatives of different religions in testing, as different religious rituals will take place during this period," Amiran Gamkrelidze, the head of the National Center for Disease Control, stated.
According to Gamkrelidze, testing will be carried out in several open agrarian markets.
"Taxi drivers will be involved in the testing process in January as they are the ones with the most contact with the public. Also, the decision was made to involve representatives of different religions. Expanded testing will be one of the ways to open up the economy gradually," Gamkrelidze said.
