The novel coronavirus can be passed on regardless of external temperatures, said the Health Ministry's novel coronavirus spokesman Sotiris Tsiodras on Friday evening, citing the World Health Organization's warning that high temperatures do not kill the virus. 

Aegean Airlines will start to gradually increase domestic flights as of Monday, May 18, it said on Thursday, while it will restart basic itineraries abroad interrupted due to the coronavirus pandemic.
On May 18, the airline will add more flights to Iraklio and Chania on Crete, Thessaloniki and Alexandroupolis in northern Greece, while the same will happen as of May 25 for the islands of Rhodes, Corfu, Mytilini, Chios, Samos and the rest of the domestic itineraries.
