Georgian Health Minister: healthcare system fully mobilised

Georgian Health Minister Zurab Azarashvili said the Georgian healthcare system is ‘fully mobilised and ready to face any challenges,’ if Omicron variant cases increase significantly. 

Azarashvili noted that out of 3,000 daily cases of coronavirus in the country, Omicron amounts to about 1,000 cases, adding that the hospitalisation rate has significantly increased in Georgia due to the surge in infections.

"The local office of ​​the World Health Organisation and the mobile groups of the Health Ministry monitor hospitals on-site, and if necessary, our citizens can be treated peacefully and safely in the hospital," Azarashvili said. 

Georgia has registered 816 cases of the Omicron variant of the coronavirus as of January 10.
