The slow decline of the epidemic wave continues, with Attica, Thessaloniki and Larissa gathering roughly half of the 1,534 cases recorded in the last 24 hours and dozens of other areas leaving their mark on the epidemiological map.
At the same time, decompression in public hospitals is a dramatically slow pace, with about 3,700 patients currently being treated, of whom 571 are intubated.

Scientists on the Expert Committee now find a significant reduction of around 30% in cases in the last seven days compared to the previous seven days, allowing moderate optimism about the course of the epidemic.
However, there is no similar optimism in the NSS field, where patients and employees are still being screened to try to cope with the coronavirus flu. The “hard” data from hospitalizations and intubations give a rough idea of what is happening in hospitals.
The number of patients until the end of November was around 4,500, while now it has dropped to 3,700.. Indeed, for the first time, as Health Minister Vassilis Kikilias said on Wednesday, it seemed that the balance was beginning to balance in daily patient admissions and discharges. This is estimated to lead to a reduction in intubation over the next 10 days.
