According to ERT, the three areas with the highest number of cases are Municipalities Athenian, Piraeus and Kifissia.

What particularly concerns the scientific community is that it has already been covered 60% of spree ICU in Attica – as confirmed by infectious disease specialists in interviews Nikos Sypsas and Charalambos Gogos.

According to your information CNN Greece, the measures will be universal for Attica and not for municipalities.

Among the measures that have “fallen” in table is the extension of the supermarket hours, the reduction of the number of passengers in Mass media Transport, the closing of the closed movie theater, The prohibition of concerts, reducing the number of people in tables of restaurants and measures for public markets.

Use is also examined mask in open spaces where there are crowding.

It is characteristic that of 5,000 cases situated in Attica since the beginning of the pandemic, 1/3 in September and in EODY’s announcement yesterday, more than half of the cases were identified in the capital.

The compilation of the new list was requested by the infectious diseases committee Kyriakos Mitsotakis as a result, it was delivered to the Palace of the Maxima on Monday night.

The fear for now is that the measures taken have not met the expected profitability.

We must protect schools in advance. It is not a generalized blockade, but rather restrictive measures that concern all of Attica, horizontally throughout Attica, ”Sypsas said, adding that they are expected to be applied until the end of the month and until there is a decrease in the number of cases.

Concerns: ICUs are on the rise

In Greece the outbreak of cases continues, but without reaching uncontrollable situations like Israel.

Specifically, EODY announced this Monday 180 new cases of coronavirus.

The number is less of the previous days, but we must not forget that always on Mondays the cases registered are less because on weekends it is fewer tests.

But it is worrying:

-The continuous increase in ICU patients who reached 59.

-The large concentration of cases in Attica, where 102 out of 180 cases were registered.
