EUROKINISSI / GIANNIS PANAGOPOULOS
Another blow comes from within for the government, which is caught in the vortex of its own failures to handle the pandemic, two days after the μετά cycle of the prime minister after his wife in Parnitha.
The new Democratic MP from Thessaloniki and former Deputy Minister of Health, Dimitris Vartzopoulos, stated directly that “it is obvious that we opened the summer badly”, taking a different position to the government’s narrative that tourism was not to blame for the sharp increase in cases. in the following months. summer.
D. Vartzopoulos characteristically said “It is obvious that we open incorrectly. It is obvious. We have 100 deaths a day. Experience shows that we should not have opened as soon as we open, or if we had to open in summer due to tourism, close much earlier. What are we talking about? This is obvious. “
He also opposed lifting the restrictions in light of the holiday season, calling it “extremely dangerous” and noting that retail could open at some point, but my personal opinion is that catering and entertainment should not open. not after the holidays, at least in northern Greece. And if we have to close again due to an increase in cases, it will mean that we opened incorrectly. “
Finally, he left advice on the issue of the use of private clinics by the government. Dimitris Vartzopoulos noted that the private sector should be used to a greater extent, adding that “the use of private sector clinics for covid cases, in my opinion, should have been done much earlier and to a much greater extent.”
“Even the ND deputies acknowledge that the country pays for Mitsotaki parties”
The former minister’s statements, unsurprisingly, provoked a reaction from the official opposition, with SYRIZA launching the attack on Maximos.
Koumoundourou comments:
After “we fought with the opening of tourism” by Mr. Georgiadis, the former Deputy Minister of Health and ND deputy Mr. Vartzopoulos complains that “it is obvious that we open incorrectly, we have 100 deaths a day”.
Even the ND MPs themselves now acknowledge that the country pays for Mr. Mitsotakis parties and the strange openness of tourism without uniform protocols and mandatory diagnostic tests.
