Nikos Kapravelos, Director of the 2nd ICU of the Hospital “Papanikolaou”, requested the closure of schools of all levels from Monday through SKAI, in view of the Committee meeting, warning of an epidemiological outbreak in the opposite case.
According to Mr. Kapravelos, schools have opened, mobility has increased and in order not to close the market, all schools can close immediately before we hit the explosion. “The decision to open the schools was high risk, I had said it since January 15,” he said.
“There is no other solution, there are not many options before reaching the explosion. Stronger measures are needed, not controls. In Thessaloniki, Patras Athens We need to reconsider the issues at this point, “he said.
“Fortunately, we start to see cases at a young age that do not have severe symptoms, the ICU is not under pressure yet,” explained Mr. Kapravelos.
“There are cases in children all over Greece, and not just in Greece, there is no longer the myth that children do not get sick … low immunity, low availability of vaccines“We are not armed,” he warned.
“I’m afraid Attica will become Thessaloniki”
For his part, George Pavlakis, a physician-researcher, commented that “at the moment in terms of cases per million, Athens counts exactly the same as on October 26 just before Thessaloniki ‘exploded’ “. “Then there was a strict lockdown and Thessaloniki paid for it,” he said.
“Portugal and Israel, despite taking daily measurements of triple cases from Greece, again lost the third wave. It can hit the third wave abruptly, Attica in particular is a candidate for this. “Yes, I fear it will become Thessaloniki,” he said characteristically.
“Imports are increasing and for the youngest this means that the epidemic is spreading much more.” The problem is not escaping the tsunami and hitting like Greece hit Portugal and Israel, Attica cannot bear such a thing. Especially the closing of secondary schools can be done easily, secondary school children can do distance education ”.
“Greece has opened dangerously for the winter, perhaps the good weather favors it, but if the epidemic continues, it can be launched,” Pavlakis said. “Greece has done very well in the best countries And it has protected its citizens better than other countries like France, Portugal, etc. We don’t just see the catastrophe, ”he said.
He also suggested giving a dose to the population after vaccinating healthy and vulnerable groups.
