Emergency closure due to coronavirus: All Greece is waiting for one prime minister’s speech which can leave a ray of optimism, even for a partial lifting of the blockade in the middle of the Christmas holidays. Mr. Mitsotakis accepts suggestions to do such a sermon at the end of this week, that is, until Friday. What exactly will he announce in this televised sermon?
A very restrained first optimism for the relative stabilization of the epidemiological curve in terms of daily cases is registered for the first time since the beginning of the second general blockade. This, however, in no way heralds the end of the quarantine at the end of the month.
On the contrary, the Infectious Diseases Committee insists that the lockdown should be extended, probably until mid-December. This is because a small decrease can be eliminated in new cases, but the rate of their daily decrease, as they estimate, should not be expected before the middle or even the end of the next month.
Based on all of the above, the government is already preparing public opinion for the extension of the confinement and in this context they suggest to the Kyriako Mitsotaki to go to another TV message. “The only priority of the government remains the preservation and protection of human life. It is understandable that the expectation is believed in our fellow citizens due to the fact that the holidays are approaching, but the need for professionals from all sectors to open the market at this moment, protection of our fellow men who are or may be in danger ”. emphasize government sources, indirectly but clearly announcing the extension of the quarantine.
The announcement of the extension, however, is not expected before the end of the week, as final decisions on the length of the extension will then be made. Most scientists suggest an extension of two to three weeks. At the government headquarters, however, according to the information, they are waiting the next three days, to trigger the possibility that the confinement ends at the end of the first week of December. Then on Thursday, that is, the prime minister’s new speech will probably be “blocked”, with which Mitsotakis will announce the extension of the general quarantine. Yes finally Kyriakos Mitsotakis agreed, will address the message / television sermon, on the afternoon of Friday 11/27/2020.
What to say about Christmas and New Years
In addition, Kyriakos Mitsotakis has made clear to his closest collaborators in every tone that the restrictions will not be lifted if the number of cases, intubated and hospitalized is not reduced. It is clear that the Prime Minister wants to be sure when making decisions that the pressure on the Health System will be reduced but also that there will be no need to impose a new quarantine after the holidays, unless of course the lockdown is lifted, since this would multiply the negative. Consequences for companies and the market in general.
The Prime Minister in his speech will be very careful and cautious about Christmas and the New Year. Will give some cracks of hope for a few drops of freedom But you won’t set the bar and expectations high, knowing that everything can be reversed overnight.
It will imply that the theme of the holidays will be reconsidered, a few days before Christmas, always in full consultation with the scientists.
