The European Commission and London have almost simultaneously warned the citizens of the continent not to rush with their plans for the summer. First, the head of the commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said: “It is still too early for talks for the summer. So far we are in a very difficult situation, more aggressive variants of the coronavirus are spreading, and in
some countries
from the EU starts
third wave “
The German company also openly threatened the AstraZeneca company to ban the export of its vaccine outside the EU due to the reduction in coordinated deliveries of the drug in member states. London has reacted drastically to the threats, saying such actions would damage the union’s reputation.
At the same time, however, they have also been very cautious about the plans for the summer in the English Channel. An advisor to the British government warned his fellow citizens not to make crooked bills for holidays abroad, as upon their return they could bring in new strains and torpedo the success of the vaccination. On Saturday it became clear that 50% of the island’s adults have already been immunized. Later, British War Minister Ben Wallace expressed the view that keeping the summer holidays at this time is “premature and largely risky”.
Bayontek founder Ugur Shahin, who developed the vaccine with Pfizer, has a relatively optimistic outlook for the near future. According to him, in most European countries, as well as in the United States, the virus will be under control until late summer.
For now, however, the facts surrounding the pandemic are very worrying. The health system in Greece is at its limit due to a registry of intubated patients. The mobilization of doctors has begun, as there is a shortage of doctors in public hospitals. Until the end of the weekend, doctors in private practice have the opportunity to voluntarily join the teams in the COVID wards. Starting Monday morning, they will mobilize, BNR reported, citing the Athens government.
The problem of the shortage of doctors is mainly found in the Attica region, where half of those infected in Greece are registered every day, but it is also getting worse in other parts of the country.

due to records of inmates in intensive care units. Starting at midnight on Friday, Paris and 15 other French departments entered a new one-month quarantine. Leaving home will continue only against a document, and travel across the country is severely restricted.
The austerity measures sparked protests on weekends in many European countries: Britain, Germany, Austria, Poland and Croatia. In some capitals, such as London and Berlin, there have been arrests and use of tear gas.
