Athena Linou, a professor of epidemiology at the University of Athens, spoke on Saturday morning about the course of the pandemic, the opening of schools and the retail trade, while assessing when this situation will end.
Ms. Linou expressed her confidence that “the pandemic will end in 2021. How fast depends on our behavior and the ease with which we get vaccinated. They need to be produced in large quantities and some approved quickly so there is no shortage. And as a country at the same time, be administratively prepared to vaccinate the majority of the population.».
With respect to schools Ms. Linou emphasized that there is a great danger that the situation will escape in Attica and defined the ventilation of closed spaces as of utmost importance.
“And the schools do open. The education system is outdated and needs a lot of attention. Schools must be opened safely and not on a regular basis. Those with few children should be opened in areas with a low epidemiological burden. Increase breaks and ventilate rooms for longer».
Finally, the professor said that “we do not know exactly how many cases there are and we may find ourselves facing great surprises. We have to do a lot of tests and decide in parts. “
