“This virus is so insidious and asymptomatic in young people that it can catch anyone if you’re not careful. Unfortunately, this turned out to be the case in Thessaloniki and Macedonia, which we constantly forces us to review our data. I will not think for a second and we will not think about the issue of communication on the background, human health and public health. If we see that the epidemiological data change rapidly, if this trend that I have seen in recent days continues, with the multiple ICU occupations“COVID and the increase in the rate of cases, then yes, of course other measures will be taken in Attica as well,” he characteristically said, speaking to the Star newsletter.
Will be one difficult winter for Europe and we must understand the reality that we live in a pandemic, emphasized V. Kikilias, adding:
“Today Belgium, where hospitals and intensive care units have collapsed, is sending as many cases as possible to Germany and doctors are being treated COVID positive. The Netherlands is the same. France has 50,000 cases a day. England must declare a rapid test and take a test from October 28. Chancellor Merkel spoke twice herself in three days. You see country after country entering lockdown now. It will be a difficult winter for Europe. “Everyone must feel the urgency of the moment “.
The Health Minister said there has been a rally in recent months and said they have almost double the ICU, 7,000 health workers have been hired, the way the tests are carried out has evolved as the number of tests and rapid tests has multiplied by 30. “You saw the emergency plan that we have already implemented in Thessaloniki.” tomorrow morning, the president of EKAPY-EKAB, Nikos Papaefstathiou, will move and settle permanently in Thessaloniki and will monitor the situation there himself, “he added.
The Minister of Health highlighted the need to to support ESY with our behavior, noting:
“The pressure that the Intensive Care Units and Intensive Care Units are receiving now in Greece is very great and with conscience, selflessness and heroism our doctors, nurses, paramedical personnel do an excellent job and do their duty. That is why I say over and over again that we must support them, help them and we must not overload the National Health System even more with our behavior and our path. Obviously there are still reservations. Of course, there are Health Regions that are under less pressure at the moment than, for example, Thessaloniki. “But you see that the situation is getting worse and that is something that everyone should consider.”
by the possibility of a travel ban from prefecture to prefecture, V. Kikilias said that he has the sensation that will taken Concern more and so. “But I would also like to say that it is naturally impossible to have a police officer next to each citizen. And I still believe in this difficult moment that we are living, that the vast majority of our fellow citizens are aware of the situation, that they do not want them to vulnerable groups are in danger. The coronavirus affects practically all of us. It is inconceivable that a small part of our fellow citizens hear that there is no virus. That they come and see the battle that doctors and nurses wage in our hospitals to understand the true. Once again, I appeal to everyone, and I am not just referring to Thessaloniki and Macedonia, we must all be careful everywhere. And I ask you our fellow citizens, to feel the urgency of the moments “, he concluded.
