Coronavirus – All news: Everything is changing as of today in the areas of the country that are in category 3 and 4 of the epidemiological map. Traffic ban after midnight and mask everywhere. How the decision was made.

The rapid increase in coronavirus cases breaking the 800 barrier and the deterioration of the epidemiological picture in many parts of the country they were the “zero point” of the new measures.

October turns out to be blacker than September. Except for the cases, which break one record after another. One of the concerns is that the average age of those registered as cases is relatively young, which in turn transmit the coronavirus to the elderly.

The stigma was given Thursday at noon, before the speech of the prime minister, the head of the committee of scientists, Sotiris Tsiodras, during the teleconference with the regional governors of Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

The meeting highlighted that The first age group in the cases is now the 18 to 24 age group and the second is the 25 to 34 age group.

As noted, the transmission of the virus from the above groups to the older age groups it will result in increased pressure on the healthcare system.

Tsiodras stressed that There should be no complacency in areas that currently have a low number of cases because experience has shown that the situation can change very quickly.

What measures apply

Specifically, in the “red” and “orange” areas wearing mask everywhere will be required, While traffic will be prohibited then 00:30 until the 05:00.

The new measures are established effective from the early hours of the morning (06:00) on Saturday.

It should be noted that the category 4 alarm level foresees mandatory use of a mask to all of them indoor workplaces and all of them outdoor, he suspension all meetings in public and private spaces, as well as travel ban outside the respective Regional Unit.

14 day period

The traffic ban from 00.30 to 05.00 is considered crucial. Government personnel chose this measure, following a proposal from scientists also the images were disturbed, mainly to young people, to crowd in the squares but also to the shops so as not to respect the opening hours.

The imposed measures will be evaluated at the Palacio de los Máximo during the next 14 days.

However, if the course of the virus in our country does not stop, then it is seriously considered even to change the opening hours of the stores of interest and instead of closing at 12:00 to close even at 22:00.

Another weapon in the state’s quiver, given that lockdown is not an option, is a ban on moving from county to county in areas that are in the red.
