“We are in the phase where, I would say, we are seeing a flattening of the curve, but it is too early to say for sure,” Gikas Majorkinis, an assistant professor of virology at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and a member of the expert committee, told SKAI.
As the professor explained, if we take into account what happened in London, a large urban center where no action was taken, and the de-escalation has already begun, even at a young age, which is the most socially active. (Eighteen- forty years).
“I do not know for sure, to say that we will have de-escalation, but the most probable scenario says that we will have de-escalation of the number of cases, at least it will start from Attica, in the next two weeks,” he said specifically.
“This is the basic scenario,” he said.
In any case, Mr. Majorkinis expressed the assessment that we will not see a further increase in cases in the near future.
“What we need to be aware of is that a process of transfer to older people has already begun and that is what we need to be careful about these weeks,” he added, advising not to choose to visit older people for at least the next ten days.
The Omicron executive is completely different from the previous ones, he mentioned and pointed out that we expect a release in the younger releases and children but this should not worry us because we know that it is a milder disease.
In particular, he explained that the most likely scenario is that this virus multiplies better in the upper respiratory tract than in the lower and for this reason it is more contagious as it multiplies “high” but also milder as it multiplies in the lower respiratory tract. that is, deeper, it is heavier.
