"We will monitor the picture and have to see if these are Omicron mutation cases or not," he said.
At the same time, Dr. Karagiannis stresses that in any case, the attention of experts regarding measures to be taken remains focused on hospitalizations. "We will see in the next few days whether the high numbers translate into an increase in patients and pressure on the health system" he noted.
He concluded by referring to data from other countries, in which there is a doubling of cases every three days. "There is no need to panic but close monitoring of the situation" he concluded.
