Today the new measures of Mitsotakis

Meanwhile, this afternoon Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis will announce a four-week action plan today as the government has accepted and assessed the Expert Committee’s suggestions on upcoming strategic moves.

The objective of the plan that Kyriakos Mitsotakis will develop is Immediately avoid at least one generalized blockade in the country.. And although the widespread lockdown is on the horizon of what the country is doing now, scientists and the government will try coordinated and specific measures to cut the chain of transmission of the coronavirus both in the densely congested areas and in the less virus-laden areas of the country.

In this context, the scientists of the Committee of Experts, after a series of meetings, which ended yesterday afternoon, It was reported that two horizontal measures were proposed, that is, throughout the country and regardless of the risk rating of the areas, and a series of measures aimed at orange areas.

“Green” in the mask, “red” in sporting and social events

The horizontal measurements are the mandatory use of a mask everywhere, in all areas, indoors and outdoors, and the suspension of all amateur team sporting events.

Today the use of a mask is required In all areas, internal Y external, in areas affected by the coronavirus and are on levels 3 and 4, the call “Orange” Y “Red” areas. In its initial discussions, the Commission considered the use of a mask to extend to the “yellow” areas, but in the end it was decided that the suggestion refers to the use of the mask in “green” areas so that the epidemic does not spread further or attempts are made to stop it once it has spread. However, in less stressful areas, the mask will be mandatory indoors and outdoors when and where there is coloration. In the “orange” and “red” areas, the use of a mask is everywhere, without exception.

THE suspension of team sporting events across the country has also been suggested by selected experts because monitoring has consistently shown in recent weeks that sporting events were coronavirus clusters. The reasoning of the experts is to drastically narrow down the specific organizations that appear to have given hundreds of confluences and to stop the rapid increase in cases.

In addition, “smart” measures aimed at the other important field of coronavirus spread, that of entertainment, they have been proposed for “orange” areas, that is, those that have been characterized by greater epidemiological surveillance. Suggestion includes the closure of restaurants and other places of health interest at 9:00 p.m., the night lockdown, that is, the traffic ban from 9.30 or 10 in the afternoon until 5 in the morning and also at the same time the prohibition of traffic outside the limits of the regional unit – however, the last proposal faces technical difficulties in its implementation, which may render it inactive. The use of a mask during the entire stay in areas of health interest has also been suggested.

Finally, the Committee of Experts proposed the widest possible extension of telework and distance education in universities.
