But why is this happening and the rates of the coronavirus pandemic are not decreasing despite the fact that the lockdown has been officially imposed since November 7? According to experts, we have not seen a dramatic change in the number of cases for two reasons.

On the one hand, mobility is quite high compared to the first blockade imposed in March, on the other hand, because the chain of transmission of the coronavirus now concerns the route from work to home. In other words, employees who continue to go to work regularly bring the virus home and pass it on to the entire family, including older members, who are at higher risk of becoming seriously ill and suffering from complications.

In addition, concerns about relaxation that have been observed in areas outside of cities prevail. As those responsible for the periodic briefing on Friday pointed out, another question that arises from the observations and data refers to behavior in the villages and the meetings that take place, despite the prohibition, between families.

As of January 10, vaccines for the coronavirus

According to the data so far, after January 10, the first vaccinations in Greece are expected to begin as thousands of doses of the Pfizer vaccine will have been received during that period.

As ANT1 reported in Greece, vaccinations will begin in the second week of January, where we will get between 500,000 and 600,000 doses of the Pfizer vaccine, while two weeks after the 200,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine. In fact, procedures have already begun for the safe storage of vaccines to treat coronavirus in the 14 special deep-refrigerated refrigerators, of which 7 have already been received.
