“From the day after Mitsotakis’s election, Tsipras started calling for elections. I do not take these things seriously” – “The coronavirus is here, the sub-variations are here”
The possibility of running in the elections was left open by the president of the Association of Hospital Doctors of Athens – Piraeus (EINAP), Matina Pagoni, speaking in the First Program
“We still do not know when elections will take place. “When it is decided that they will take place, then we can also discuss whether I will run as a candidate”, the president of EINAP emphasized characteristically.
Asked if she follows her example Minas Gaga, Matina Pagoni countered that Mrs. Gaga was not a trade unionist, “she never cared and suddenly she was on the ballot paper of the State and the Ministry of Health, while I have been involved in trade unions for 25 years and I have brings many victories to my team “.
He added, however, that we can not continue to deal with the elections. “The day after Mitsotaki’s election, Tsipras started calling for elections. “I do not take these things seriously,” he said.
Regarding the criticism she has leveled at the leadership of the Ministry of Health, Ms. Pagoni noted that every faction, especially when it is in government, does not do everything 100% correctly.
“There are some mistakes, and alas if there were no mistakes because then we would all start to worry. It is very important for the factions themselves to point out the mistakes.
It means that the faction has Democracy, listens to its executives and so improvements are made. There must be criticism. “Alas if we all say yes,” he noted.
“The coronavirus is here, the variants are here”
Regarding the coronavirus front, the president of EINAP clarified that no doctor said that we were done with the pandemic. “We said we wear masks where needed. The coronavirus is here, the variations are here, and in fact in Europe Omicron 4 and Omicron 5 have broken down. They have come to us and we must be careful. We never said the issue was over. “Let this be understood by everyone”, he clarified, reminding that two months ago he had asked not to take off the masks in June.
“People are experienced after 2 years, no one needs to go out on TV and give instructions. Everyone knows that indoors where there are people we have to wear a mask, as well as outdoors where there is overcrowding. People to go out, to go on vacation, carefully, knowing that the coronavirus is here, the sub-variants are here and from September we will be vaccinated again “We are moving forward normally so as not to have a difficult time as we did in the previous two years,” he stressed.
“We do not need to go out and keep saying take off the masks, put on the masks, people now know,” added the president of the Hospital Doctors. He even estimated that we will not go through the difficult winters we went through in previous years, as there are now vaccines, antiviral drugs and protocols. “We are not without weapons in the war,” added Ms. Pagoni.
