Poros Island.
After more than 30 confirmed cases of COVID-19, the Greek Ministry of Health had no choice to bring emergency restrictions to the Island.
Masks must be worn all the time and a list of other restrictions until August of 17.Then the heath specialists will re-examine the situation.
The dangerous part is that the Greek islands are isolated from the health netowrk of Greece. There is no structure that can sustain and hospitalize COVID cases and the staff is ton enough.
This will be another challenge for the Greek government.
Opening the border for tourism gave the local economy a much-needed breath but it cost was a many COVID cases.
Europeans choose Greece as a European "Local" resort for vacation and also because Greece had astonishing good numbers during the COVID outbreak in March.
But not controlling incoming visitors is a BIG mistake and could lead to more problems.I understand the need for making the economy heal but giving overtime to the health crisis could be 10 times worse.
