We have an image from the analysis of the wastewater of Thessaloniki that there is a drop in the last days of the order of 20% “
The position that schools should not open before the Enlightenment was expressed by the Governor of Central Macedonia, Apostolos Tzitzikostas, characteristically noting that any discussion on lifting the restrictive measures is “invalid and untimely.”
Regarding the second wave of the pandemic sweeping Thessaloniki, Apostolos Tzitzikostas said that the situation has improved slightly.
«We have an image of the analysis of wastewater from Thessaloniki that shows a drop in the last few days of the order of 20%, while since last week we have dropped by 50% in the virus load, which means that in the next days will follow a significant reduction. of the cases. But this does not mean in any case that we will see this better image in our hospitals. We won’t see her for at least a week with ten days. The number of our fellow citizens who die will continue to be high, as well as the percentage of those who will be hospitalized in Intensive Care Units. Let’s not relax now that we see things heading into a recession, because there is a danger that we will roll again.ι“He pointed out, speaking to SKAI.
Then highlighted “any discussion about lifting the restrictive measures is untimely and invalid. At this stage, the only thing we have to talk about today is how to protect ourselves. If we relax now and suddenly open now, the risk is very high. We can go back to the data we had in October and November.».
He noted that the health system is fighting a great battle. “The doctors and nurses have stayed small, they sleep in hospitals, rest 10 minutes and call again to run to intubate a patient. The situation is very difficult and we should not live it again and the only way is not to make hasty movements».
Regarding schools, he highlighted that both in Thessaloniki and in the rest of Greece, they can’t be opened before the lights.
«Although epidemiologists are the ones who will make their suggestions, my opinion is that in case the schools are opened, regardless of the epidemiological data showing that there is no high transmission in schools, unfortunately mobility on the streets of Thessaloniki will start again . and central Macedonia and that’s not good. I would avoid opening schools at all levels up to Fota“Underlined the Governor of Central Macedonia.
He ruled out the possibility of opening the restaurant in Thessaloniki, noting that “has been requested by the entrepreneurs themselves not to open in December».
In this context, as he stated, he asked the Prime Minister at the meeting the day before yesterday that the government continue with the measures to support employers and workers for the month of December and part of January at least in the first phase, so that they can take advantage of for themselves. .
Asked about the elimination of the two-speed confinement, Mr. Tzitzikostas pointed out that “each region has its own characteristics and in relation to retail, it would be good to wait a while for the epidemiological data for the next 10 days and in no case can it be discussed immediate store openings “Epidemiologists will show us the right time to reopen stores.”
He stressed that at this stage it is important “in order to contain a possible third wave of pandemic in our area. This should not affect just northern Greece, but the whole country, because we may have been through these two difficult months, which are largely due to the weather.».
Regarding the reasons why Thessaloniki was in this terrible situation, he stressed that the vast majority of people complied with the measures.
«The problem was with the few, who continued despite calls not to comply with the measures and the few were enough to disperse.».
According to him, the first reason that contributed to the increase in cases was the opening of universities, since some 40,000 students were in the city at the beginning of October. The second reason was that due to agricultural work, land workers arrived in the area, uncontrollably arriving in the country without being properly evaluated, and the third had to do with the worsening of the climate.
