Experts call for mandatory outdoor masks

　　Linu, a professor and epidemiologist at the University of Athens, said in an interview with the media on the 27th that the government should reimplement the mandatory wear of masks in outdoor areas.

If people stay in a densely populated environment for a long time, the risk of infection will increase.

However, if people wear masks when they are outdoors and keep their distance for a relatively short period of time, the risk of being infected by the virus will be reduced.

It is recommended to expand the population of compulsory vaccination

　　Vasila Kopoulos, professor of pulmonology at the University of Athens, emphasized that the range of people who must be vaccinated should be expanded to control the speed of the spread of the new coronavirus.

Compared with the implementation of blockade, it is obviously more to use the means of expanding the scope of vaccination to curb the spread of the virus. Wise choice."

　　Vasilakopoulos also made predictions about the future development of the epidemic in Greece.

He said that at this stage, the number of deaths from the new crown virus in Greece every day is between 30 and 50. The chance of unvaccinated people being infected with the virus in winter is increasing, and these people are at risk.
