For the course of the pandemic, but also relaxation of measures With the gradual abolition of the mask from Easter onwards, the professor of Pulmonology at the University of Crete, Nikos Tzanakis, spoke on SKAI and the show “Unmatched” noting that although the cases are increasing, the hard indicators are declining.
“We see many cases from Omicron 2, which, however, do not translate proportionally to many hospitalizations and mainly to intubation and death. “While 3 weeks ago we had 120 admissions per week in the ICU, today we have 102. Imports from 1,982 per week increased to 2,359, while deaths from 409 per week were reduced to 331”, he stated characteristically.
In this context, it proposes the prevention of the vulnerable, the vaccination with a third dose of those who have not done it, the administration of the fourth dose to those proposed by the National Vaccination Committee, the provision of antiviral treatment for all people who will need it and the gradual opening up society.
“We should leave the vaccination certificate, as they have now lost their value and I believe that after Easter the mask should be gradually withdrawn,” he stressed.
However, he emphasized that the measures were to be taken gradually, given that Denmark and Norway, which have been fully relaxed, are now leading the death toll per million inhabitants.
