by

The backup plan to curb the coronavirus that will be activated if the pandemic indicators worsen, revealed the main news bulletin of SKAI, with government sources categorically stating that there is “not one in a million” chance of imposing a general or local lockdown.

The epidemiological data are being closely examined and now the new parameter of the Omicron mutation has emerged, which has signaled an alarm all over the planet. The government’s reasoning is based on the triptych, increase of vaccinations, intensive controls for the implementation of restrictive measures and strengthening of the NSS.

The additional measures that are in the “drawer” in view of Christmas are the following:

  • Increase of rapid tests for the unvaccinated from 2 to 3 per week and requirement to be daily and not 48 hours.
  • It is not ruled out that the obligation to use a mask will return to all outdoor areas.
  • As a last resort, the exclusion of the unvaccinated from outdoor areas of catering and entertainment is on the table, even if they have a rapid test.
