Authorities have already predicted an increase in cases, and therefore serious incidents and deaths, as the temperature drops. The critical period to contain the outbreak of the pandemic are the weeks that we are going through. On the one hand, the temperature has not dropped significantly and the winter viruses and flu have not started, and on the other hand, it is the period in which it is determined whether the restrictive measures work and in what areas.

Meeting chaired by the Prime Minister of Thessaloniki
The prefecture and the city of Thessaloniki remain at alarm level 2, as recently decided at a meeting under Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. For the moment it has been decided not to take new measures, but to make the maximum efforts to strictly implement the same ones in force, since the city is “one step ahead of the orange alarm.” It is characteristic that today 49 new cases have been announced in the prefecture.
“No new restrictive measures have been decided” said the mayor of Thessaloniki, Konstantinos Zervas, after the video conference. Emphasizing that the coronavirus does not discriminate, Zervas pointed out the need to face the third wave calmly. “It takes a real effort to achieve the result that we achieved the two previous times. Thessaloniki is very close to orange.”
“For unjustified negligence” The mayor of Thessaloniki justified the outbreak of coronavirus cases. “The municipality of Thessaloniki and the municipal police will start from tomorrow exhaustive controls to comply with the measures. It requires a collective effort. I am extremely optimistic that we will make itMr. Zervas added.
In particular, the epidemiological data of Thessaloniki and the health burden observed in recent days, were examined in a meeting held tonight through a teleconference with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
At the meeting, which was attended by the Minister of State George Gerapetritis, the Vice Minister of Civil Protection and Crisis Management Nikos Hardals, the regional governor of Central Macedonia Apostolos Tzitzikostas, the mayor of Thessaloniki Konstantinos Zervas, the leader of ELAS, Michalis Karamalakis and the professor of pathology – infectious diseases Sotiris Tsiodras, expressed great concern about the increasing trend of cases in Thessaloniki and neighboring municipalities.
The event was particularly prominent that the average age of the cases was 33 years, which means that the problem is more pronounced at younger ages.
During the meeting, the need for a strict application of sanitary norms was highlighted and the ways were discussed, mainly through supervisory mechanisms, in order to reduce the observed picture of relaxation, the continuation of which would lead to the transition of Thessaloniki to the “orange”. level of precautionary measures and rules.
At the same time, the available options were discussed for October 26, day of celebration of the Patron of Thessaloniki, Agios Dimitrios and the anniversary of the liberation of the city, given the special conditions of this year and measures to avoid co-painting were examined. The increasingly important role that local government must play in dealing with the pandemic was underlined.
Estimates of the evolution of the pandemic
It is estimated that there are two main parameters that changed the situation in Thessaloniki, so a few days ago, experts said that it had managed to tame the spread of the coronavirus, unlike Athens. The first parameter is that not enough tests were done, since in its periphery Central macedonia there are major outbreaks where the burden of controls and tracing has decreased. The second important parameter is the return to the city of thousands of students: the district has about 150,000 active students, most of whom live and study in Thessaloniki. The local economy, as the Thessaloniki agents used to say “can’t stand»The loss of students, whom he seeks at all costs to keep in the city. However, the roughly 120,000 students meet in the same meeting places, are in the same locations, and it’s hard not to sync. Furthermore, tens of thousands of students have returned to Thessaloniki from almost all over the country and from areas with a higher epidemiological burden, but also difficult to trace.
As Mr. Tsiodras said in the morning meeting, based on the data, in addition to the assessment of the evolution of the pandemic in areas that are already in the highest surveillance zone, it was found that they are starting and some increasing trends are observed in the Thessaloniki area, which is now at alert level 2, that of surveillance.
More than 300 active cases registered
The Thessaloniki Regional Unit is reported to be back in the forefront after several weeks of absence, registering a stable two-digit number in October. coronavirus cases. Active cases in Thessaloniki have exceeded 315. At least 280 people are in isolation and 34 in hospitals.
The difficult situation is confirmed by data from Neapolis-Sykeon Township where the last hours have been recorded so far 24 cases of coronavirus.
As the mayor of Neapolis-Sykea said Simos Daniilidis The cases in the municipality are not limited to schools and gymnasiums, but there is a spread of the disease in cultural centers, KDAP and municipal services, while it is estimated that a large number has not been notified to the municipality, since there is no obligation that schools and other structures report immediately Local government.
Furthermore, Mr. Daniilidis pointed out another worrying element that should put the whole of society on “alarm”: In the municipality of Neapolis – Sykeon “The myth that the coronavirus affects the elderly is dispelled”As 6-year-old students tested positive for the coronavirus, while young athletes, including martial arts champions, also became infected.
