Christos Hadjichristodoulou, professor of epidemiology at the University of Thessaly and a member of the Infectious Diseases Committee, left a window for transport at Easter using a test.

Speaking to SKAI, he noted that the Committee of Experts is studying, especially for coastal travel, establishing self-testing as a precondition before travel.

Referring to the crowded images observed today, he stressed that the important thing is to say that the virus is transmitted less outdoors but is still transmitted and that we must continue to maintain distance and mask.

Among other things, he stressed that the government took into account the fatigue of the people and took these measures: “The measures were not met anyway. There was not much vigilance for inter-municipal travel. That is why the government made this decision. you also need an expansion valve. But we should not overdo it in general and understand that it transmits just as well outdoors. ”

Regarding what changed and the decision was made to block the retail trade in Thessaloniki, Acaya and Kozani, he stated that the development of the phenomenon is dynamic and they are closely monitoring it, while the decision was not taken lightly but the new Hospital data were studied.

For schools and department stores

“When the self-tests come, we will discuss it, we will look at the epidemiological data again and I think that if the children are examined, we have no reason not to open it on April 12,” said Hatzichristodoulou, referring to the Lyceums.

As for shopping malls, he said they are high-risk places and that is why “we will take a good look at the epidemiological data and then we will decide.”

He pointed out that the openings are made if the epidemiological data go well and with an interval of at least 7 days. He also said that if you consider that the peak occurred last week, we need about 4 weeks of de-escalation. “This is how we will get to Easter.”
