Speaking on state broadcaster, Dr. Constantinos Tsioutis, head of the advisory scientific committee, said that the rapid tests and the vaccines constitute the main tools of the strategy to de-escalate the restrictive measures.
He added that for now the number of people being treated in hospitals constitutes an important indicator to evaluate the epidemiological situation.
He also said that a third dose of the vaccine is possible in order to achieve immunity to a large part of the population.
