PASYKA Council member Sakis Siakopoulos spoke on the front page about the first day of the opening of the restaurants.
Specifically, he said that "from all the provinces we are talking about, people came out but very numb. He was hearing crazy things, that he had to do a rapid test, eat over the mask, not be able to breathe, etc. We were all irritated. We opened but not all of them because they said something crazy, that the outdoor areas are not good, that you should not rock with the music ".
He added that "ten hours before we open, a protocol comes out, which said that the customer should wear a mask at meal time and take it out to take a bite, he said about music and not rocking, he said about the outside space if it is covered or no, something that contradicts the existing smoking law but also in general what is defined as external focus ".
It is reminded that as clarified by the health services for better and more efficient implementation of the protocol, the open outdoor space is designed in such a way as to ensure proper and adequate ventilation of the space. "This is achieved if the available sides or part of them are open (at least 2) and in a way that will not in any case refer to an enclosed space", the Services report.
Regarding music, regardless of its genre, dancing is prohibited and all spectators should be served seated and not wander around unnecessarily.
A basic criterion for control / complaint purposes is whether the spectators are standing and dancing.
Regarding the use of a mask by patrons, it is required when arriving at a recreation area but also during any movement within the venue, as well as when leaving.
Mr. Siakopoulos explained that not all restaurants have opened, some do not have an outdoor area.
