Despite the security measures, he succeeded and defeated us.”

“All cases,” he continues in the statement, “are being treated for the time being only with DEPON and vitamins, special diet, isolation as much as possible and continuous temperature and oxygen measurements. Only one of our elderly is hospitalized in Xanthi hospital due to low oxygen level. For now, we inform our friends and loved ones that the situation is under control from our side. However, all visits to relatives are suspended until further notice and updates or communication will be done by phone. Please join your prayers with ours for the happy outcome of this adventure as well. We have learned for years about the difficult, we have been forged through difficulties.

The president of the nursing home also made an extensive reference to the additional measures taken by the institution all these months in order to protect inmates and staff, underlining that “thirty months after the start of the coronavirus pandemic, we are making superhuman efforts and have allocated unprecedented resources to protect the nursing home of our heart. We implemented our own additional protection and security protocols in combination with the instructions of the EODY and the Greek State”.

“We passed unscathed,” he continues in the announcement, “through all the stages of the virus’s mutations and even its most difficult and deadly forms. We vaccinated three times together the staff and our grandparents, who we host and have been waiting since the month of April for the fourth reminder dose. The time has come, however, in an age when this mutation is highly contagious, unfortunately, for us to live this experience too.”
