Prime minister: Coronavirus infection rate has fallen to 0 85

The infection rate - known as R - has fallen further to 0.85, Prime Minister Kaja Kallas (Reform) said on Thursday. Last Friday, the rate was 0.9 which means Estonia s downward trend is continuing. The positive thing is that people have really stuck to these restrictions, reduced contact with each other, worn masks, and as a result, the infection rate has dropped to 0.85, she said at the government s press conference. An infection rate below 1 means the infection rate is no longer rising. The latest round of restrictions, which moved children to distance learning and closed cafes and restaurants, came into effect exactly three weeks ago on March 11.

Health Board comms chief asked to resign after criticizing vaccine plan

The Health Boards s head of communications Simmo Saar has been asked to leave his position after he anonymously criticized the state s coronavirus vaccination plan but was later identified, daily newspaper Postimees reported on Tuesday. Saar told Postimees (link in English): It is certainly not my intention here to unjustifiably criticize the Ministry of Social Affairs, the Health Board or the Government of the Republic. Actually, I m worried. I am worried as a citizen, as a father, as a partner. When I look at how vaccination against the coronavirus is planned in Estonia, I find that it has been done too late, and when it is said today that there is a great plan, I will honestly say that it is not a plan. It is, at best, the starting point for a vaccination strategy.
