The new measures announced yesterday by the government in the shadow of the spread of Omicron spoke this morning on SKAI TV and on the show “Today” the Minister of Development Adonis Georgiadis.
Commenting on the change of operating hours from January 3 to catering and entertainment, Mr. Georgiadis stated that “the catering will not be damaged, the entertainment centers will indeed suffer”.
In fact, he characterized the measures as relatively mild and estimated that they would affect the focus a little.
There is no question of completeness at this time, he added.
Responding to criticism that the measures could be taken now due to the high number of cases, he said that “of course the pandemic is sticking this week as well, however no one would follow the measures on New Year’s Eve. Do you know anyone in Greece who wants to stay home? In politics we must have realism. “Society is not prepared to stay in.”
As he explained, it seems that the number of cases is increasing, but it is not pressing on the health system.
“We left it open because the pressure on the health system has not started and we respect the entrepreneurs. “I appeal to young people if they have gone out to nightclubs to avoid meeting older people,” he said.
“The tide is here in the next 2-3 weeks the cases will rise and we will break records as is done in other countries,” the minister added.
Regarding the restriction of the presence of the fans in the stadiums, Mr. Georgiadis stated that the measures are not observed in the stadiums. “Groups and police say they can not control it, now they will not enter”
Regarding the launch of the prices in the masks, the minister pointed out that no violation of the prices has been observed in the pharmacies.
He stressed that the phenomena of profiteering were observed on websites. “Yesterday we received the purchase invoices for products that were put up for sale at different prices. From the control that takes about three days, if someone has gone to speculate, we will apply the law “.
He went on to say: “By the day after tomorrow, at most, I will announce the fines, which, as I said, will reach one million euros. I can exhaust it if it is a big company “.
