Bet mūsu biedru prakse pierāda to, ka sporta klubos atgriežas vairākums to biedru, kas ir vakcinējušies un pārslimojuši vīrusu, testus par maksu neviens nepērk un neizmanto.Ir ieviesti dažādi atvieglojumi personām, kas ir vakcinējušās pret Covid – 19, vai pēdējā pusgada laikā atveseļojušās no Covid – 19, un tā ir tiesa, bet vēršam ......
