Are schools in Greece staying open? Here in the UK I have seen large groups of kids/teenagers congregating after school with zero social distancing going on. Hugging, playful wrestling - you name it they are doing it. I appreciate it might be more challenging to get kids to comply with social distancing rules but putting the leisure industry aside for a moment, this is a real breeding ground for the virus spreading.
Greece was on my ever reducing shortlist of somewhere to go to but that has been ruled out given the ban on international travel from England for the next four weeks.
