A first relaxation of measures begins today, Saturday April 3, and citizens will now be able to move outside the limits of their municipalities, but always within the regional unit.
Movements by sending an SMS to 13033 and code 6 will be allowed with a vehicle outside the municipality and without a kilometer restriction for personal exercise in an outdoor area. Up to three people are also allowed to exercise together unless it is a family.
However, the use of the mask is still mandatory, while experts urge citizens to respect distances and hygiene rules with good hand washing and the use of antiseptics.
It is noted that the new measure is being implemented as a pilot and is currently valid only for weekends, with the government warning that if we have images of overcrowding, it will lift.
Market opening
As of Monday, April 5, the retail opens, except department stores and malls, by sending an SMS to 13032 and a limit of up to 3 hours for the purchase and return home.
The consumer will buy for a living, while in stores the restriction of 1 customer per 25 m2 will apply, which means that appointments will be made.
What will happen to the self-tests?
The “premiere” of the self-assessments will be on Wednesday, April 7. As announced by the Deputy Minister of Health, Vassilis Kontozamanis, the supply of pharmacies will begin on Wednesday. Thus, at the end of the week the pharmacies will have sufficient quantities.
In the first phase, self-assessments will be available to a) Lyceum students, aged 16 to 18, and b) teachers, while those aged 18 to 64 will follow. The elderly will be the last, since much of this population has already been vaccinated.
