Head of Georgia’s National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) Amiran Gamkrelidze says that many more people are infected with coronavirus in Georgia than official figures say this.
The government of Georgia has announced that it will not place a systemic lockdown into effect today as Georgian media outlets had earlier reported. Vice-PM Maia Tskitishvili says that the media reports were ‘wrong and misleading.’ She stated that the government will exercise a ‘more effective control’ on wearing facemasks, as ‘it is one of the most effective measures to prevent the further spread of coronavirus.’ Tskitishvili said that the opposition’s election-related rallies sparked a surge in new infections.
The Georgian Clinics Association has urged the government to open 100 to 500-bed field hospitals near big clinics which will be equipped with essential medical equipment to fight the coronavirus, as well as heating and air conditioning systems.
The country has reported 3,824 new cases of coronavirus, 3,851 recoveries and 33 deaths in the past 24 hours.

Georgian health officials have welcomed the new coronavirus regulations introduced by the Georgian government today, while the opposition parties have called them ‘irresponsible and unreasonable.’
The government of Georgia has imposed further restrictions to curb the spread of the coronavirus in the country. The restrictions that will be in effect between November 28 and January 31 are as follows: An effective curfew will be in force between the hours of 21:00 and 05:00.
