If we continue with such numbers, there is no other option than the universal lockdown in Cyprus, said clearly speaking to OMEGAlive a while ago, Professor Petros Karagiannis.

In fact, sounding the alarm bell for the situation that prevails in the hospitals, Mr. Karagiannis did not hesitate to add that with the number of cases that Cyprus continues to record, even children can not return to school on January 7 as it is scheduled, but neither did the jobs open.

He even expressed additional concerns in relation to the high numbers we record despite the measures taken.

"We have to see if the mutated strain of the coronavirus also came to Cyprus and we have not got an idea which is much more contagious," he said characteristically.

However, regarding the 751 cases that were announced on Monday, Mr. Karagiannis explained that this large number is due to the abolition of the confirmation of rapid tests, resulting in yesterday's results to be added positive from fast exams of previous days.

"However, our numbers show that there is a relative increase in numbers in general, despite the measures taken and that is what worries," said Mr. Karagiannis.
