A new variant of the coronavirus has found its way to Greece.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Friday contacted Patras Mayor Kostas Peletidis and the regional governor of Western Greece, Nektarios Farmakis, on the phone, to discuss how local government can assist in the observance of health measures during the feast day of St. Andrew (Aghios Andreas), the patron saint of Patras, next Monday.

A trial date was on Wednesday set for a priest in the city of Patras who was setting fire to municipal decorations used in carnival processions.
