The actual cases of coronavirus will amount to more than 150,000, estimated the professor of Pulmonology Nikos Tzanakisspeaking on the show “Morning Update” on SKAI.

The professor emphasized that approximately are expected to be announced today 60 to 80 thousand cases in the weekly report of EODY, explaining that the actual number may be much higher: “If we have 10-15 thousand cases per day we will have to multiply it by 2 times 3 to find the real numbers. Therefore if these cases are multiplied by 7 we go to 150 per week. This is the reality,” he said.

As he said, there are many who are sick and simply do a self-test, without declaring it, and thus are not recorded.

Regarding admissions to hospitals, he emphasized that although there is an increased number of cases, the number of hospitalizations is disproportionate.

Finally, for those returning from vacation, he advised that for 3-4 days they should avoid contact with vulnerable people and if this is necessary they should do so with the use of a mask.
