Gogos: the three scenarios for the evolution of the pandemic

There are three scenarios for the development of the coronavirus pandemic in winter, according to the professor of infectious diseases and committee member Charalambos Gogos.

As you mentioned speaking to SKAI, it is difficult to predict what will happen in winter, especially after the end of October-November when the flu appears.

The three scenarios are:

The first scenario is to have a big wave, maybe bigger than the one in March, and then a complete weakening of the virus. “This is the worst case scenario. Of course we know the behavior of the virus better and the health system is better prepared.

In this case, we will have to take tougher measures, since the local measures that we have taken, we saw that they block the epidemic. However, I rule out a generalized lockdown, “said Mr. Gogos.

The second is to have many small, continuous waves and the third is continuous waves, one smaller than the other that will end in 2021.
