Health Minister urges everyone to get vaccinated, saying that young people are struggling in ICUs

Intensive Care Units (ICUs) in Cyprus’ public hospitals are full of COVID-19 cases and many of the non-covid cases are referred to the private sector, the Minister of Health Michalis Hadjipantelas and the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary Christina Yiannaki pointed out, during their visit to the walk-in vaccination centre that opened on Thursday at the University of Cyprus.

Michalis Hadjipandelas particularly noted the problem with unvaccinated young people who have families with small children, who are currently in ICUs. He said that a 46 – year – old with four minor children, a 42 – year – old with two children and a 40 – year – old with four children are currently treated in ICUs.
