Koronovios: The 8 + 1 Areas Tsiodras is Ringing the Bell for – Anxiety for West Attica | HELLAS

Sotiris Tsiodras’ special concern about the development of the coronavirus pandemic in Western Attica was mentioned yesterday by Vassilis Kikilias at the press conference.

As he revealed, after the discussion he had with the infectious disease specialist, the cases and the number of patients in the West Attica region have started to increase, something that worries him a lot. Despite declining cases across the country, West Attica is showing increasing signs, and Tsiodras is ringing a bell for the region that sees the positive rate of the virus rise.

The problem also affects hospitals, since according to the latest data, 38 patients with coronavirus were treated in Thriasio until yesterday, 16 in the Agia Varvara hospital, 75 in Attikon, 23 in the Nikaia State General Hospital and 24 in Tzanio.

For which areas did Tsiodras sound?

According to Mr. Kikilias, Sotiris Tsiodras is particularly concerned about the following areas:

• West Attica
• Pieria
• Drama
• Kilkis
• Lump
• Imathia
• Florina
• Larissa
• Thessaloniki

These are the areas with the most new cases per 100,000 inhabitants in recent days, according to Mr. Tsiodras.

The Kikilia “bell” to the citizens

Mr. Kikilias, in turn, asked citizens questions in view of the holidays. The Minister of Health, in another attempt to emphasize the importance of compliance with the measures, did not hide his discontent with the epidemiological situation of the country, sounding the alarm to the public.

“With these daily incidents, do we prioritize the Christmas message as a society or does our sense of individual perception prevail? Are we a caring society? “He asked and continued:” Are we aware that we have 578 intubated people in hospitals? Mobility has shown a slight upward trend, despite the lockdown. “The question that arises, and it is simple and difficult, is where do you treat fellow citizens, where can you find an intensive care bed, if the going gets tough.”

He also said that after five weeks of confinement there is a balance in the amount of admissions, but also in terms of being discharged from hospitals with Covid. “If there really is a third wave, as some scientists say, or the dispersion continues,” asked the Health Minister, “where will we treat our fellow citizens if and if the cases increase after complacency, relaxation or possibly uprising? of some measures? “

Kikilias: Otherwise this Christmas

The minister stressed that this Christmas will be different, but asked for a bit of patience, since “there is light at the end of the tunnel and this will be the vaccination that will be carried out safely and organized in a national campaign.”

“The celebration of love and solidarity and respect for the elderly, our support for doctors and nurses are on the one hand and on the other our personal interest and if this will lead us to behave irresponsibly. “The image that is normal these days at Christmas is that parents hug their children and exchange gifts. This cannot be done during these holidays. You have to be more careful this Christmas,” the minister said yesterday.

As Vassilis Kikilias added, there is light at the end of the tunnel and this will be the vaccination that will be carried out safely and organized in a national campaign. The parties, the church, but also all actors in society, will support vaccination, he said, adding that the vaccine is safe and “this message should reach even the most remote village in the country.”

Intubated patients are reduced, ICUs are covered to 83%

According to the EODY report, yesterday the number of people in the ICU decreased, however, the number of 578 remains high and puts pressure on hospitals. Mr. Kikilias gave data on the pressure that exists in the Health system, highlighting that ICUs are in “red numbers”, with a fullness of 83% at the national level. In Attica the occupancy is 77%, while in Thessaloniki it is 95%. According to the data presented, the majority of cases are now between 40 and 64 years old, while at the age of 75 and over and at the age of 65 to 74 there is a significant incidence of the disease and an increase in new cases in a 5% in the last month.
