He reminded that according to experts, a pandemic lasts from 3 to 5 years, and no one can know if a mutation will appear – a surprise.
To take a coronavirus test before returning home after their summer vacation, advises young people President of EINAP Matina Pagonis.
Speaking to SKAI and the show “Morning Update”, he explained that young people can pass the virus with a two-day fever, however for elderly people with underlying diseases in the homes where they return, things can be different.
He added that the Omicron 5 mutation is highly contagious and may not be fatal, but it is very dangerous for those who have underlying diseases.
“Don’t look that we are not tracking, it is now the responsibility of each of us to be careful and not to transmit. When you put yourself and your body on such an adventure, you don’t know what might happen later due to long covid. It’s 30% of these incidents,” he pointed out.
The “image” in hospitals
Mrs. Pagoni emphasized that there is an 11% reduction in admissions to the simple Covid beds hospitals and that the situation is manageable as there are several empty beds in the ICUs.
What will happen in the fall and herd immunity
The president of EINAP emphasized that we are no longer talking about herd immunity and reminded that experts said that a pandemic lasts from 3 to 5 years, and no one can know if a mutation will appear – surprise.
“That’s why we can’t say things we don’t know. We will see what will happen in the autumn when we all return, when the schools open, in October the Universities. There it needs special attention, and a campaign by the vaccination committee for vaccinations from the end of August onwards”, he noted.
