We are at a better epidemiological level than many other countries but if we do not observe the protection measures, things will go bad, stated Deputy Civil Protection Minister Nikos Hardalias at a press briefing on Tuesday on the course of the coronavirus in Greece.

Hardalias said that 83 percent of the new incidents are domestic and are the result of high congregation and only 17 percent are imported adding that tourism is not responsible for the outbreak.

He said that we are far away from a general lockdown in the cities but horizontal measures will be assumed whenever necessary.

“The pandemic does not show any decline signs and a special protocol will be announced in the next days for the working places and for the opening of schools” Hardalias said.
