Papaevangelou: We have a war – If bullets fell, we would stay home

Ms Papaevangelou recommended patience, because the health system will remain under pressure for at least a week or two and not only in northern Greece, as the number of patients and intubated will continue to increase.
“Strict compliance with the measures is extremely important, but unfortunately it still seems that in some cases the fatigue of restrictions prevails and in others our wrong decisions for occasional pleasures have catastrophic consequences.”

It is a big mistake to relax because a large number of deaths affect people with underlying diseases. “Let’s not forget, these people disappeared because of the coronavirus,” he characteristically said. “We have a real war and if there were bullets, instead of the invisible coronavirus, we certainly wouldn’t relax, we wouldn’t be upset about having to stay home.”
