“We are all afraid of an explosion. And we wonder and we fear it. “There is no way to predict it but it seems that things are not good,” he told and on the show “Today” the Deputy Minister of Health Mina Gaga.
As he explained, at the moment in Thessaloniki and Larissa, in Northern Macedonia and Thrace there are few beds for Covid19 patients. “Our needs make us transform the system, both private and public. It is important that we prevent this. “
Asked if the measures taken would be able to prevent a possible deterioration, he replied: “In order to prevent something, we must do it all together”, he continued, adding that “whatever measures we take if each of us does not pay attention will not we have the expected result “.
He clarified, however, that restrictive measures will not be needed because, as he explained, in communities with a low vaccination rate, we have more or less 50% vaccination.
Regarding the measures announced yesterday for the unvaccinated, Ms. Gaga also pointed out that the goals are for all of us to be careful and secondly, where there is a low vaccination rate, we have much more cases and hospitalizations as well as deaths.
“Daily monitoring of both hospitalizations and ICUs and deaths shows that the large mass of patients who are being treated and those who are losing their lives are unvaccinated,” he said.
The Deputy Minister also referred to the need to observe the measures, to pay attention to the contacts, to wear a mask and to be vaccinated. “Not just to be vaccinated for the first time. But also those who have been vaccinated, to take the third dose “.
