"We are close" to the decision to abolish the vaccination certificate for coronavirus, estimated the Secretary General of Primary Health Care, Marios Themistocleous.
According to Mr. Themistocleous, it is a given that the certificate will be abolished at some point in Greece, as is the case in other countries, and exactly when will be determined by the epidemiological data and the relevant recommendation of experts.
"Our goal is to return to normality", Mr. Themistocleous told SKAI, noting, however, that if conditions require it, the certificate will be reinstated.
"We see that the increase in cases does not give a corresponding increase in hospitalizations. If this continues, given that the weather conditions are also improving, within the next period of time the certificate will be abolished," noted the head of Primary Health Care.
Everything is under consideration
Themistocleous did not rule out the possibility of temporarily abolishing the administrative fine of 100 euros for unvaccinated people over 60 years of age. More specifically, when asked whether the temporary abolition of the certificate could also lead to a temporary abolition of the fine, he replied. The administrative fine is something that has paid off and continues to pay off, because-even though we have very low appointments, right now we continue to get first installment appointments. All of that is taken into account. The main goal of all of us (...) is to get fully back to normality, but it is too early to put that as of now."
