Koronoios: Why it was decided to wear a mask in MMM – Sotiris Tsiodras’ answer

A spokesperson for the Health Ministry for the coronation stressed the use of the mask: ««Now the traffic restriction is opening and there will be more congestion in MMM.

So we were in favor of the mask. I will say again with great modesty, with a lot of thought, with many objections in our discussions with the Commission, with many arguments for and against, arguing that this may be it should be the first measure to be abolished later and we should not be distracted by hygiene measures, distance measures. But they can’t be seen on the subway. And here we come to the differentiation of the strong recommendation of the ban. And the strong recommendation of course exists where there is a closed space, right? The ban makes sense when implementing the measure. “, the infectious disease specialist noted.

A spokesman for the health ministry, however, said your personal opinion for the decision on fines to those who do not use skins within the MMM. “The fine at this stage, IMHO, acts as a deterrent, more than that it does not follow a procedure that concerns the public health of all of us and especially in one place, such as on public transport that is too difficult to do. serve a fine »he said.

Lord tsiodras He also gave an example of what could happen in MMM after the lifting of the measures.as long as someone has suspicious symptoms.

“Imagine that someone gets on public transport, everyone wears a mask, he does not wear it and sneezes. What should be done? If you sneeze from the virus it is the bad scenario, if you sneeze because you have an allergy it is a good scenario, which you cannot avoid. But imagine what episodes can happen there. Great social impact. Needs attention. We currently have a strong recommendation for closed spaces.

We have made an obligation, as a Commission we have been asked to say where we consider it to be mandatory. We said it should be mandatory at this stage and it may not be too long if we do well. And we believe that the first concept of compulsion is the means of public transportation, the places where the employee comes in very close contact with the employee and especially in personal health matters and places where people who handle non-standard fresh foods work. “, he pointed.
