"The announcement of cases only hurts" - When does the outbreak in Cyprus end?

The Front Page hosted the Professor of Pulmonology at the University of Thessaly, Konstantinos Gourgoulianis. The professor gave the positive approaches against the negative records recorded by the epidemiological picture in the last 24 hours both in Cyprus and in Greece.

He expressed the view that it is not right to announce the daily infections since they sow panic and do not give the right dimension to the problem while he said that based on the "model" of South Africa in early January the wave that now hits Cyprus will begin to subside.

"In Cyprus, an increase began around December 7. An exponential increase as was the case in Britain. If one compares this data with South Africa, which is a model for this pandemic wave, one will see that the peak is about 3 weeks from the time the increase begins.

That is, the beginning of January or even earlier will be the peak of this pandemic wave in Cyprus ", said the professor.
He went on to say that "this wave will be exhausted quickly. In South Africa it ran out in a month or so. If we are at the top now in Cyprus, then this wave will probably be exhausted in January. Already in South Africa were all the measures and left only those that concern the accidental. "We will go a few weeks with this increase," he said.
