Unfortunately, such a pandemic is new to most of the world, especially European Countries. It's expected to impose wrong measures to tackle the pandemic. However, we've already faced it in March, our government at least should have learned from it and not repeat the same mistakes. We're on lockdown for 6 months now, while there's no light at the end of the tunnel. Almost no action has been taken to reinforce hospitals, and when they did, it was already too late.

There is no point in imposing the lockdowns now. During the initial phases, the lockdowns enabled governments enough time to prepare for the pandemic. But right now there will be more harm than good, if the lockdowns are imposed again. Citizens need to take adequate precautions, by wearing masks and maintain social distancing. Until they do these, there is no point in imposing new restrictions. Another extended period of lockdown may end up decimating the global economy.

That's the point, lockdown was imposed in order to prepare for the next wave of the pandemic, however, this didn't really happen in Greece. Summer passed without taking and precautions to face the next wave that we'd have to come across during winter. On the meantime, emergency funding was given to the church, TV channels and other corporations such as Aegean Airlines.

The state always supports corporations, large industrial companies, because of their greater importance for the country's economy, and a certain position of the state as a "hostage" in front of large structures. But churches and other, specific structures, as for me, are stupid to support, they already have huge preferences and special conditions for taxation. Rather, it is a game and flirting with parishioners, which can be a "tool" for creating chaos and disorder.
