Dr. Karagiannis: Without a horizontal lockdown, we are not going to drop the cases (BINTEO)

The possibility is visible that we will reach 1500 cases per day, according to the Professor of Microbiology and Molecular Virology, Petros Karagiannis.

Speaking on the show "ALPHA Kalimera", he said that in the last 4 days we have exceeded 4000 active cases in the community.

Regarding the protests of the owners of the leisure centers, regarding the safepasses, he mentioned that we should all help, adding that if we want to have fast results, something drastic is needed. He also stated that "Without a horizontal lockdown we are not going to drop the cat cases that we are doing at the moment…".

He went on to say that it is necessary to have a safe pass in all areas, while he said that the issue of free rapid tests is again on the table of the Minister, since as he said "With such a number of cases daily how can we successfully monitor and detect positive cases in time if we do not test very fast? "
