Problem here. They let 2 get in Greece till 9 month, but if u have 7 – u can’t get in shops…. Reply Deborah 1 March 2022 - 10:35 Dears, can you please confirm if for non-vaccinated it is correct that a negative rapid test (not self test) is valid 48 hours for enter into shops and eat on terraces? I thought it was previously valid only 24 hours. Thank you for your confirmation . Best regards Reply Ieva 24 March 2022 - 22:47 True…seems goverment let’s to enter the country but later you can not spend time normally as you need to fit other norms which are different and more strict then entering country. I agree that it is not clover and for travellers it becomes bad surprise when they face it by trying to enter restaurants or malls.. I hope someone will wake up soon as double standard is not logical… Reply Dalene Van Zyl 4 February 2022 - 15:15 Very strange! Here the sick ones in hospital and ICU are mostly the unvaccinated Reply Christina 3 February 2022 - 22:54 And over 100 people are dying every day in Greece due to catching Covid. Maybe they are not dying of Covid but as a result of catching it. Unless someone you love die because of it. It is so easy to become a keyboard warrior. I prefer to listen to the scientists than people in here who are spouting off with no medical or scientific qualifications. Reply Max 3 February 2022 - 09:19 The biggest atrocity against our liberties in 3 life times I can only wish that these big pharma and those sick people at DAVOS , ( all craving for their big world reset ! With their ( you will own nothing and be happy slogan ), All get what they deserve one day Reply Kostas 2 February 2022 - 18:21 It’s like they’re trying to keep the Delta strain by not letting Omicron displace it. I guess more people hospitalised means more cash for hospitals. Reply Angela Kulukundis 2 February 2022 - 06:52 Stoop all that nonsense. You all wear seat belts and don’t complain and you all had childhood vaccinations Reply Ana J 1 February 2022 - 22:25 It seems that vaccinated but positive(infected) has more rights than unvaccinated but negative( read HEALTHY) person. Most of the people are extremely stupid! Reply Dalia 1 February 2022 - 12:25 So anyone with rapid tests that lasts 48 hours are at risk to get infected with virus passed the test done time. True. But so are vaccinated as vaccine efficiency is far far from 100percent effective. How is that logical and how is that not discriminatory towards the part of the population who go by with rapid test? Oh and everyone i know who got sick recently are vaccinated. Also hearing humorous stories how vaccinated who know they are infected continue to live their lives as usual during the period of being ill because they can and the mandates facilitate that. How did we come to this? Can someone explain the logic? Or logic is no longer what we go by. Reply Maria 1 February 2022 - 16:07 Who said there was any logic to all of this? If people still think that this is about a virus and our health, they need to wake up. Reply mike 1 February 2022 - 18:18 NOW you’re asking for logic? Reply Sahil Hudda 1 February 2022 - 20:51 Jail Reply Rudy 1 February 2022 - 11:09 And in my surroundings, only vaccinated people are getting infected. Non-vaccine-bated are better protected Reply Nika 2 February 2022 - 11:19 True! In my surroundings the same story! Better be without vaccine and have less chance to get sick! Reply Rudy 1 February 2022 - 11:08 The government is killing small businesses, the vaccine is killing people. You are a killer mr government Reply Leave a Reply to Dalia Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Δ
