Here is the latest news from Greece regarding the Coronavirus, this huge problem that is bringing the whole world to its knees.

As of September 1, 2020, the total of positives is 10317 people with 266 deaths.

It is mandatory to wear individual protections and goggles in all outdoor events where it is not possible to observe safety distances, on public transport, in hospitals and in all closed places. If you are stopped by the police, the penalties amount to a fine of € 150.

Despite everything, however, the most courageous tourists have not given up visiting our beautiful and beloved land which, compared to other states, is applying in a rigid and schematic way a conservation and protection policy towards its inhabitants and guests.

Today there is still the obligation to close the premises at midnight and above all the restaurateurs have not suffered a strong impact on the economic level already prepared for a decrease in turnover for this terrible year. On the contrary, night clubs are experiencing enormous losses with the prospect of the closure of many clubs, including historical ones, especially on the most famous islands.

However, most cases remain confined to the northern regions in the area of Thessaloniki and the capital Athens. It is also specified that most of the infections were brought from the Balkan countries such as Romania and Serbia while the random tests made to incoming tourists revealed a very limited amount of positives.The islands that worry the most and where special restrictions have been issued such as the ban on aggregation for more than 50 people, masks even in open places, ban on parties and celebrations, clubs, bars and restaurants closing at 24.00 until 10 September are: Crete Chania, Lesbos, Thessaloniki, Chalkidiki Peninsula, Corfu Mykonos, Paros, Santorini, Rhodes, Antiparos, Zakynthos and Kos.

We always remain hopeful that a solution can be found as soon as possible in order to return to our normal life.
