Greek minister ruled out the possibility of a new blockade
On August 31, local time, Adonis Georgiadis, the Minister of Development and Investment of Greece, denied that the government would adopt the possibility of re-blocking due to the impact of the epidemic.
However, it is not ruled out that more specific occupational groups will be included in the plan for compulsory vaccination.
Georgiadis said: "The current economic situation in Greece is good, the tourism industry is recovering well, and the economy is growing smoothly. However, it would be a shame if all this is ruined because of the low vaccination rate of the people."
He emphasized: "The government has no plan for another large-scale lockdown, but if we need to expand the range of people who are voluntarily vaccinated to avoid the lockdown, the government will take action without hesitation."
When talking about people who oppose vaccination, he said: “People should no longer be afraid of vaccination. Scientists have studied all the side effects of vaccines. The benefits of vaccination still outweigh the disadvantages.”
About 80% of faculty members have been vaccinated
Greek Minister of Education Nikki Kerames stated on September 1 that after the start of the new school year, offline education in schools will not be interrupted due to the epidemic.
The school's operating agreement will be revised accordingly.
Kelames said that the specific requirements will be announced in the next few days after the Ministry of Education and the experts of the Health Commission have relevant discussions.
"We have abandoned our plan to close schools in response to the epidemic, but except for the playground area, all non-school personnel must wear masks in the classroom. At the same time, we will increase the detection of the new crown virus."
Kelames emphasized that the government’s top priority is to open up all educational institutions, adding that about 80% of faculty members have been vaccinated against the new crown.
