Food places, bars, clubs and entertainment venues will only allow seated customers as of Thursday, the government said on Tuesday, in an effort to control spiking rates of coronavirus infections driven by crowding by younger people.
Deputy Minister for Civil Protection & Crisis Management Nikos Hardalias said in a short emergency briefing that the average age of new coronavirus infections in the last 10 days is down to 27.
Citing National Public Health Organization (EODY) statistics, he said that the rate of clusters of infection had risen as well, while 32 percent of people with recorded infections mentioned an outdoor assembly as possible source of exposure to the coronavirus. In addition, hundreds of infections recorded in the last few days appear to be traced to entertainment venues.
