Economou: The Prime Minister was not aware of the study of Tsiodra-Lytra

by

The scientific study of Messrs. Tsiodra and Lytra was not known to the prime minister and had not been handed over to the prime minister or any of his associates at the Maximos Palace before its official publication, said government spokesman Giannis Oikonomou during a briefing for parliamentarians.

Asked if there was any inconvenience for the scientific study, the government spokesman stressed that the government honors science, does not use it as a tool and will not put scientists in the middle of a political controversy.

He added that from the first moment the government chose to trust the scientists, to use their knowledge and to follow their instructions for dealing with the pandemic.

Others undermine Mr. Tsiodras – Remains the closest and most key associate of the Prime Minister

He assured that Mr. Tsiodras is still “the closest and the main collaborator of the prime minister” in terms of the team of scientists to deal with the pandemic.

The government honors the assistance, the knowledge did not undermine Mr. Tsiodras for a moment. “Others for a number of months questioned his scientific knowledge, his training, the way in which he approached the management of the pandemic and openly undermined him”, stressed Mr. Economou.

Tsipras cannibals the study – He wants a lot of audacity to talk about resignation

Mr. Oikonomou accused Alexis Tsipras of belittling scientific research for partisan interests and showing that he does not understand or respect it, instead cannibalizes a study to bring it to his own measures.

Regarding today’s statements by the president of SYRIZA that in any other European country the prime minister would have resigned, he responded with harsh language, saying that “it takes a lot of audacity to talk about the resignation of the one who has resigned from reality and responsibility, on such an important issue ».

Specifically for the study, Mr. Economou stated that he reiterates the well-known findings for increased mortality when the health system is under pressure but also for the weaknesses that exist in specific areas of the country. The government spokesman stressed that these data are discussed daily and that the prime minister himself has repeatedly stated the need to restructure the health system.
