Aide to the President of Azerbaijan on economic issues Shahmar Movsumov announced in August that the strict quarantine regime will be abolished. The stabilization of the declining rate of daily infections increases people's hopes for the abolition of the strict quarantine regime or the easing of the quarantine regime.
Chairman of the Health Committee of the Milli Majlis Musa Guliyev also said that we must go to ease the strict quarantine regime:
"But in any case, no matter how much COVID-19 circulates in the Earth's atmosphere and is probably not expected to go away in the near future, we all have to get used to living under new rules - distance, medical masks and constant use of disinfectants. According to experts, these tools will become our way of life in the next 1-2 years. On the other hand, we must learn health education ourselves and teach it to our friends. It is necessary to be examined in case of contact with any patient or relative of the patient.
Is access to the regions restored?
The MP noted that during the easing, traffic to the regions is expected to be restored:
"But unless it's important, people should prefer isolation at home and minimize communication. It is expected that during the softening, the SMS permit will be revoked and the subway will be restored. But, of course, all this will be decided after analyzing the sanitary-epidemiological situation.
Guliyev said that rules will be developed for public gatherings:
"Weddings, mourning ceremonies and sports events are the most popular. It is necessary to implement them within certain rules. In any case, we must get used to living with the coronavirus for the next year. "
Half-year distance education ...
According to the parliamentarian, a decision on the resumption of education in educational institutions will be made after August 15:
"It depends on how the virus behaves. Although some countries have declared victory over the coronavirus, they have been forced to tighten it again. Therefore, the decision on education will be announced after the second half of August. However, it is expected that distance education will be preferred. As Mr. President Ilham Aliyev emphasized, the main thing for us is people's health. It is possible that we will conduct distance education for half a year.
"There is no enlightenment by saying 'the situation is getting worse, you will be infected'"
The chairman of the committee said that social, economic and psychological tensions have increased among people due to the quarantine regime.
"All of this is real and cannot be ignored. But this is not the only problem we have created, the problem we are in. The whole world is fighting this virus. At the moment, the psychological assistance service must be active. Television, in particular, should educate people. Flexible approaches to processes must be demonstrated. Sometimes, for a month, on TV, on websites, "the situation is getting worse, you will be infected, and so on." they intimidate people with information. It is forgotten after 1 month. There is no such enlightenment. Awareness-raising should be conducted on a regular basis, without psychological pressure on people. Therefore, the process must be monitored by the Operational Headquarters under the Cabinet of Ministers. Not only the spread of the virus, testing, treatment, but also the socio-psychological aspects should be more actively and flexibly managed by the Operations Headquarters. "
