So far, scientists note that there is no problem with embarking on the second phase as the epidemiological indicators are encouraging.

Petros Karayiannis, Professor of Microbiology and Molecular Virology and member of the Ministry of Health’s scientific advisory committee told CNA there will be a review of the epidemiological picture so that President Anastasiades knows where we stand and if it is ok the measures to be further relaxed.

They will also discuss which measures will be relaxed in the second phase. “We will talk about schools and airports, tourism and cafeterias, hair salons and football and everything that encompasses the next phases”, he added.

Asked what will be the committee’s suggestions to the President, Karayiannis replied “the suggestions were taken collectively by the committee”.

He also said a lot needs to be done for the airports to open. The decisions for the second phase of relaxing the lockdown measures will be taken by the Council of Ministers the next few days.

The President will reportedly address the people to announce the measures.
The second phase starts from 21^st May-8^th June and includes:
