As noted by Ms. Papaevangelou, The epidemiological burden of Attica is particularly high and called on those who traveled to the periphery to show responsibility To prevent the virus from spreading, stay away and wear a mask.
“In no case do we want the cases to increase in the provincial cities.” pointed out the professor on the occasion of the massive exodus of Athenians to the province.
“If the measures are met, we expect a reduction in cases in the next 15 days. This will be followed by a reduction in hospitalized patients. However, we do not expect an immediate reduction in intubation. because the duration of hospitalization in the ICU is two weeks on average. This will take longer and unfortunately we expect a continued pipeline increase in the coming weeks», he is stressed.
