The rise of coronavirus cases in our country in recent days continues to cause concern to scientists. According to Gikas Majorkinis, Assistant Professor at the Department of Hygiene and Epidemiology, EKPA Medical School, “we expect a stabilization from the end of the week based on the measures taken in the last 10 days with the generalization of the mask” and added that “if we remain below 200 cases daily and do not see 250-300 cases, we are at a good level “.
However, if the opposite happens, the professor stressed that additional measures should be taken. “If we exceed the 200 cases steadily, then we will have to see again from the middle of next week if new measures need to be taken,” he told SKAI, stressing that an important parameter is the number of intubated patients. “If we look at the quality characteristics given by EODY, there is a significant number of cases that are orphaned and this number is constantly increasing. The other quality feature we are interested in is the intubated ones, in which we saw a tripling within a few weeks. “If we see that the number of intubated people reaches extremely large numbers, for example 150, it is certain that additional measures will be needed.”
