Vatopoulos- SKAI: Yes to the mandatory vaccination from 50 – Probably faster the 3rd dose

by

Alkiviadis Vatopoulos, professor of Microbiology at the University of West Attica, spoke in favor of the extension of compulsory education from the age of 50, speaking to SKAI. At the same time, he estimated that we will probably go faster to the booster dose.

“It is very likely that we will go faster than the semester to the third dose … Exactly when the booster dose of a vaccine is given depends on the dynamics of immunity from biological data, and the data of the epidemic. “I think they have come to the conclusion that it is safe and right for the booster dose to be done a little earlier,” he commented on the committee of experts.

Asked about the scenario that the government is allegedly considering for extending the obligation of vaccination from the age of 50, Mr. Vatopoulos characteristically stated: “To do what is possible where there is no reason, a stick falls”.

Commenting on the mutation, Omicron said, “I’m not sure if it’s an extremely penetrating strain, but it’s not that important. more contagious we have to move with the logic that it is more contagious, after all we see it spreading “.

He reminded the statement of the president of EODY that a free self test will be given to all of us next week so that we can all do just before the holidays to identify as many cases as possible and to isolate so that we are ready for the holidays.

In addition, Mr. Vatopoulos suggested, before we go to any festive gathering, that a self-test be performed on those who will go. “Vaccination, rapid test and personal protection measures are the 3 weapons that must be used in parallel with the vaccine.”

He also spoke about the lack of primary health care and public health services, the lack of a family doctor who could convince about vaccinations.

“They are waiting for the special vaccines with the lowest dose for children 5 to 11 years old,” the professor added. I hope we do not get to a mandatory test for vaccinated people to go indoors. Vaccinated can also get lighter, of course, but the virus is recycled.
