The number of vaccinated people predicted by experts will be about 7 million people by the end of this year, which is almost 20% of the population of the entire country. Taking into account the number of 19 citizens who have already been ill and have developed immunity to COVID, the so-called national immunity throughout the country (recall that it is at least 60% of all residents) will be achieved already at the beginning of 2022. This means that quarantine restrictions will be completely canceled.
