Life in Thessaloniki during the days of the Coronavirus (COVID-19)

By Hellas Car 16 November 2020

Thessaloniki is undoubtedly one of the most populated cities in Greece with intense daily activity, variety of gastronomy, nightlife and historical interest. However, the spread of the coronavirus pandemic could not let the co-capital unaffected. The rapid spread of the virus is increasing daily the number of cases in the city.

Over the last days, the pandemic spread in Thessaloniki is so rapid that the civil protection was called to announce measures of emergency so as to avoid worse situations among the health sector of the city. Covid-19 has hit public health of the city so hard that all health units and Intensive Care Units (ICU) are suffocated and ask for help before situation becomes irreversible.

Unavoidably, taking measures of protection and keeping distances are the only choices of the inhabitants. Citizens are called to minimize their movements at least possible, to avoid meetings, while gatherings are prohibited. Traffic on the roads shows a significant reduction in the movement of the citizens, as there are only done for specific reasons or cases of emergency. Shops and generally all the market have been shut down, while in the catering sector, only companies that are allowed to provide services such as delivery or take away keep to operate.

All these rapid events have greatly affected the daily life and the lifestyle of the inhabitants of Thessaloniki. The health and the economy of the co-capital are affected daily and the effects of the covid-19 will be overcome after a long time. By observing the emergent measures of protection and personal responsibility, citizens are called to get out of the impasse of the pandemic for a smooth return to daily life.
