So far, students and parents in 200 schools across Greece have held demonstrations to protest the government's mandatory anti-epidemic measures for students such as wearing masks.

  In this regard, epidemic prevention experts have repeatedly emphasized the importance of wearing a good mask to the public.

  Infectious disease expert Lazanas said on the 24th: “As the number of new crown cases in Greece is still high, the government should consider forcing people to wear masks indoors and outdoors to slow the spread of the virus in the community. At present, the medical expert team has not yet reported The government proposes new regional blockade measures, but if the previously introduced epidemic prevention measures cannot effectively contain the spread of the virus, we should consider adopting more restrictive measures."

  He also pointed out: "The blockade of an area is bound to pay economically, and the mandatory use of masks, we may be able to avoid the eventual blockade. This is also the cheapest and most effective means."

  Lazanas also emphasized that it is necessary to reduce the pressure on public transportation by increasing the frequency of public transportation services, so as to avoid crowding.

  Regarding the current critical situation of the epidemic, Greek Prime Minister Mizotakis issued a televised speech on the evening of the 24th, urging the public to strictly abide by the epidemic prevention measures, wear masks in confined spaces, maintain social distance, and shoulder the public's due responsibilities to curb the spread of the virus.

  He said that the new blockade measures will inevitably have a negative impact on economic recovery. To avoid the re-blocking situation, the joint efforts of all parties are required.

  In addition, Mizotakis also mentioned that starting next week, 100 new buses will be added to meet the capacity demand during peak hours.
