There is only one national coronavirus registry, but even that is one of several tools the government uses in following developments of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, Health Minister Vassilis Kikilias told Parliament on Wednesday, according to ANA.
Kikilias, along with Deputy Civil Protection Minister Nikos Hardalias, National Public Health Organization (EODY) President Panagiotis Arkoumaneas, and professor and infectious diseases specialist Sotiris Tsiodras, briefed the Special Permanent Committee on Institutions and Transparency on the handling of the pandemic.
In terms of the virus itself, professor Tsiodras said that the virus would continue to exert pressure still, while he expressed the view that “its mutations will predominate” in new cases.
He also expressed the belief that “this pandemic will end with vaccinations – as long as the vaccines are available to the public, as they ought to be.”
