COVID-19 infections in Greece hit a new daily high almost every day in November, prompting authorities to announce new measures on Tuesday, which also restrict access to cafes and restaurants, state services and banks to those who are either vaccinated or have a negative test.
Those vaccinated against COVID-19 also have to present their vaccination certificates, triggering long lines outside shops in the capital's busiest shopping street, Ermou.
"I don't like it," said Soula Tsaousi as she waited in line outside a clothes shop in central Athens. "We don't live in a jail, we're civilized human beings and I don't like it at all."
