The scheduled announcements of the government by Nikos Hardalias for 6 pm on Friday, February 5, have been postponed until later. The reason is the marathon meeting of the committee of 32 experts of the Ministry of Health who are unable to reach a decision on new measures for Attica.

New measures for some municipalities ?
The first decision that was taken and a relevant suggestion will be made to the government is to impose a universal lockdown in Patras, Chalkida and Agios Nikolaos, Crete. Which means that all schools and shops will be closed.
As ethnos.gr wrote on Thursday (4/2), apart from the Municipality of Patras, which is in the red areas of the coronavirus map Achaia was expected to join, based on a proposal by infectious disease specialists.
The tightening of measures in Patras had been announced in advance, as there was a large dispersion both in the Municipality of Patras and throughout Achaia, while in the middle of the week Michalis Chrysochoidis visited the Achaean capital to discuss the next moves with local politicians
In addition, Achaia recorded 81 cases yesterday, according to the announcement of EODY. In the previous period there was a increase of spread in the hospital of Agios Andreas in Patras. The government is appealing to the health workers to be vaccinated, as the attendance of the nursing staff for vaccination was very low.
In Patras, two children aged 9 and 10 are being treated, with the first being in serious condition, while on Friday at noon it became known that a 2-month-old baby with covid-19 was admitted to the hospital, a fact that proves that the spread of the virus is very large.
That is why the committee favours the suggestion for a universal lock of all activities in the Achaean capital, as well as an even stricter traffic ban.
