Greece

has announced that it

will oblige

workers in nursing homes and health personnel in public and private centers

to be vaccinated

.

And, although health personnel were the first group to be vaccinated at the end of December, still many professionals, especially nursing professionals, are among the skeptics who have not made an appointment.

With this new regulation, nursing home staff who have not yet done so will have to be

vaccinated

immediately or will be suspended from employment as of August 16, while health personnel will be obliged to do so as of August 1. September.

In addition, as of this Friday and until the end of August, only

vaccinated people

will be able to access the interior of the

hotel and leisure

(where cinemas, theaters and nightclubs are integrated), in an effort to achieve group immunity before autumn , as announced this Monday by the Greek Prime Minister,

Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

The increase in infections and the advance of the

Delta variant

, together with the refusal of a large part of the hoteliers to control and separate their customers, has forced the Greek Government to make this decision.

Mitsotakis has assured that these measures seek to protect the health of workers and those around them, but also "constitute an act of justice for the majority of citizens, who act with responsibility and social sensitivity."

After the end of the curfew, Greece has registered several sources of contagion in bars and parties, especially among young people, who accumulate the majority of cases of the delta variant: 70% localized affects people under 40 years of age.

In addition, Mitsotakis has announced that conscripts will be vaccinated immediately when they report for military service, while career military men will be able to do so in their units whenever they want.
