Important steps for the removal of the lockdown are expected to be announced today, Wednesday (12\/05) as the sending of SMS is abolished, the traffic hours are extended and the movements from prefecture to prefecture are released.
\nThere are a few hours left for the government announcements regarding the lifting of the lockdown that is expected to be accompanied by the abolition of SMS, the release of supra-local movements and the extension of traffic hours.
\nThe relevant announcements will be made on Wednesday afternoon (12\/05) by the Minister of Health Vassilis Kikilias and the Deputy Minister under the Prime Minister Akis Skertsos.
\nThe new measures to be announced include – according to MEGA – the following:
\nLiberalization of movements from prefecture to prefecture
\nExtension of traffic hours from 23:00 to 00:00 or possibly 00:30.
\nAbolish sending SMS to 13033 (for circulation) and 13032 (for retail purchases).
\nRegarding the lifting of the ban on supra-local travel, there are various scenarios on how travel will take place both on the mainland and on the islands.
\nMore specifically, those who wish to travel to island destinations, whether they are Greek citizens or foreigners, are very likely to have done a self test or negative PCR (molecular coronavirus test) 72 hours before the trip. These conditions are also expected to apply to air travel.
\nRegarding car travel in mainland Greece, according to the station, it is expected that there is a recommendation for those who travel to perform a self test or rapid test, before their trip.<\/p>\n
From the 15th of May, the tourist season in our country officially starts and the visitors from abroad must have a vaccination certificate or have had a 72-hour coronavirus molecular test.
