Greece's health minister on Tuesday announced that schools in the country, at all levels, from pre-K to tertiary, will remain closed for the next two weeks, in a bid to reduce exposure to the Covid-19 virus. Nearly 90 confirmed instances have been reported in the country, with no fatalities so far, although one 67-year-old man who has tested positive hospitalized in an ICU with a severe case of pneumonia.

 

Minister Vassilis Kikilias also called on parents and guardians to reduce minors' exposure to public places.
