The Minister of Health and the professors of the Scientific Monitoring Committee should inform us of how many dozens of deaths are recorded daily in Cyprus, so that they can justify why the mandatory measure of conducting rapid antigen testing for COVID-19 disease continues in hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, dental practices, etc., and even for 48 hours instead of the 72 that was in effect before January.
If the measure was justified in early January (after the Christmas holidays) due to the increase in cases of a milder (perhaps) disease than the flu, now obviously it is not justified. And it’s good that the authorities are considering and examining the data, and if the… death spike has passed, they should lift the measure.
