EU Commissioner for Health Stella Kiriidides stated that the number of new infections is growing massively in the EU, so member states must introduce additional and immediate restrictive measures and strictly enforce them.

This may be our last chance to prevent the recurrence of spring conditions.

he is stressed.

He also called on the 27 member states to introduce restrictions in a coordinated manner and not lift them early, as “the acceleration of the spread of the virus indicates that the measures were ineffective or were not properly implemented.”

He also drew attention to the fact that National governments must take action against false information and conspiracy theories about the epidemic.

In addition, governments must act as soon as possible to avoid total closures, since “they only cause damage to the economy and also have a detrimental effect on the mental health of the population.”
