The risk of infection with other strains of the coronavirus, after a disease with the Omicron variant is real, even for a vaccinated person, speaking in the main news bulletin of SKAI and Nikos Stravelakis, the doctor-researcher in the USA, George Pavlakis.
As the doctor mentioned in each coronavirus, the immunity decreases after a few months, while he underlined that without the 3rd dose we are not protected from the Omicron variant.
The professor spoke of a tsunami due to Omicron, and explained that a huge synchronized wave of infections like this, threatens to catalyze the health system and the economic life of the country.
The tsunami, the doctor said, “will not last long but will leave many things behind and will not be the end of the pandemic.”
“Health systems are nowhere made for the tsunami, no matter how many ICUs are built, the key is prediction and prevention,” he commented.
Regarding the level at which the cases will move, he stressed that more will be done, but the issue is, as he said, what they will leave behind.
He explained to our country that there are two epidemics, Delta and Omicron. “It is very difficult to see in these conditions when Omicron will completely replace Delta, if that ever happens. We have a state of emergency and we are looking at what will happen in the spring and summer, to focus on the current situation. “
At the same time, in order to limit the dispersion, he proposed the closure of all gathering centers in order to minimize human contacts: “It is much better for groups of 5-8 people to go to their homes than gatherings of 200 people.”
Especially for the holidays, he stressed that “the fewer meetings, the better. Cancel parties with double digits, as many tests as possible. “The more prepared we are, the more we will avoid infections. We will defeat the virus, better conditions will come and we will not pour oil”, he concluded.
