NCDC head says when face mask mandate will be lifted

We cannot stop wearing face masks before the majority gets vaccinated,'' NCDC head Amiran Gamkrelidze said. 

In Gamkrelidze's words, no decision has yet been made regarding the removal of curfew; however, discussions are underway.

''The pandemic has claimed the lives of 5, 000 people in Georgia, which is why I understand lots of things are embarrassing, but pandemics hit us once or twice a century,'' Gamkrelidzde declared.
