Continue to struggle. until leaving no cases in Turkey, but even at that point we will continue fighting protection. As you know, while the curfews of 10 years old and above and 65 years and older that have been going on since 20 March, we wrote 'Stay at Home' in red and 'Go Home' in green at the traffic lights in Edirne. According to the decision of the Presidency, there are no curfews anymore. Home stay is more free for certain periods of time. But slowly it brings all of Turkey mask requirement for all provinces. It brings a curfew without a mask. We wanted to be a first pioneer in this sense. By removing the words "stay home" and "go home" at the traffic lights, we stick the "Wear Maska" stickers to both red and green light. Put on your mask in red, put on your mask in green. So let's wear our mask absolutely and absolutely in any environment. Let's obey the social distance and hygiene rules. Let's not go outside without a mask for the health of us and the safety of all of us. ”
Let's not go out without a mask
Mayor Recep Gürkan, who asked Edireans not to go out without a mask, said, “The mask has only one purpose; To protect us against viruses that may come from the mouth and nose. And if we have a virus, don't infect it. It makes no sense to wear the mask on the arm or carry it in our pocket. Please don't tell us nothing will happen. Nothing happens to your relatives, to your family, to your child, to your friends, to other citizens. Therefore, we must wear our mask in every environment by obeying the rules of social distance. ”
When a journalist asked the number of cases in Edirne, Mayor Gürkan said, “I am not authorized to give figures. The Ministry of Health and the Governor of Edirne can explain. I can say that it is also in the press. We have been going with zero cases for a month. Case numbers have started to appear in the last few days. Yes, there are also people coming from outside of the city, but even if they came from outside of the city, this is included in Edirne records. What happens, let's wear our masks. This is worrying. until recently, it had fallen 700'yer daily number of cases in Turkey came to 500 thousand nowadays. So there is a problem here. Not only that we see in every corner of Turkey in Edirne. If there are a hundred people on the street, half of them have masks and half of them have no masks. We absolutely need to wear the mask. ”
WE HAVE NOT REDUCED THE MEASURES AND MEASURES
Stating that the fight against the COVID-19 outbreak continues without slowing down, Gürkan said, “We did not interrupt the measures in the period when we started to normalize. We continue our work in the same way. We have never reduced measures, measures and work. The municipality's vehicle just passed from here and it disinfected the road with foam disinfectant. We continue to disinfect the workplaces and public transportation vehicles. We continue to give hand disinfectants to those in need. We continued the measures without reducing them, and they will continue to do so. ”
