"When we talk about lung plague, which is still not confirmed to have been in Russia, it should be noted that this is a disease that exists in the world, in some countries it occurs from time to time, and there are also people dying. There are African countries, in Europe, the last cases were 50 years ago, and in Lithuania, we had it 200 years ago. This is a disease that is controlled by antibiotics. It could, of course, depend on the scale and accuracy of the information, but these decisions would be made together with European partners. Since the times of COVID, we have established common algorithms for traffic restrictions," said L. Kukuraitis to LRT radio on Wednesday. #plaučiųmaras #Lietuva #Rusija (translated)
