Dr. Koliou: Cases are now everywhere - The situation is difficult (VIDEO)

The member of the epidemiological team Dr. described the situation in Cyprus as very difficult, speaking in the main bulletin of OMEGA. Maria Koliou.

"The situation at the moment shows a great expansion in the community and it is everywhere, it is not in a specific place and in a specific group of people, so it is a generalized situation and it is difficult to deal with focused measures."

In the end, the one that brings the best results is the lockdown, he stressed.

"We have seen this with the examples of Limassol and Paphos where stricter measures were taken"

The results so far are not satisfactory.

"It's a little early to judge whether the measures are effective because we are still in the first week from the day they were taken, so we can see if they work or not, 10 days must pass. The results so far are certainly not satisfactory. "

"We need to review the situation to see where we are going," he said.

"At the moment there is an ongoing discussion with the committee and it is all on the table"

What will happen to the schools?

Regarding what will be born with the schools, Mrs. Koliou stated that:

"Certainly schools are a problem as there is a lot of dispersion, we have to see if the transmission took place inside or outside the schools."

Is the market closed or open during the holidays?

He does not want the market to close during the holidays, he pointed out.

"Closing the market is a remote scenario and it will happen in an exceptional case"

Today, as he stated, no decisions are expected to be made.

"Everything will be judged in the coming days based on the epidemiological data."
