The Interagency Coordination Council has decided not to open nightclubs of Georgia because of the rising cases of the Omicron variant.

According to the Head of Operational Staff of the council Giorgi Gibradze, the threat of the virus spreading in the country is obviously high.

“Thus, the Council has decided to keep nightclubs closed. If events in nightclubs are still held, the Labour Inspection will respond to it.

There is a law in Georgia before which we are all equal. The law says that it is forbidden to hold these events, I do not understand the logic of them holding the events anyway”, - added Giorgi Gibradze.
