[00:00:00] with Daphne to discuss economic issues,
[00:00:02] issues that concern our pockets, but now
[00:00:05] we are in a completely different environment. Daphne
[00:00:09] is indeed where it happened essentially on the island which
[00:00:12] was identified as Ithaca. Daphne, good
[00:00:15] morning. Good morning, everyone. Just a correction
[00:00:19] to the DJ, because I see below Favignana that we are not at that spot,
[00:00:22] we are in the Aeolian Islands at Vulcano, as
[00:00:26] you also said. A very important
[00:00:29] island, both geographically
[00:00:32] and naturally, because they are volcanic, like all the islands, and a very important
[00:00:36] island, because significant scenes from the filming of the
[00:00:39] Odyssey took place here, such
[00:00:42] as, for example, the scene where we saw
[00:00:46] Odysseus being tied to the mast to listen to the
[00:00:48] sirens' song, or the scene where he passes between
[00:00:52] the area where Scylla is. You can also see
[00:00:56] the relevant shots behind me. And this whole movie
[00:00:59] is a very good reason
[00:01:02] to promote Greek culture, of course, but
[00:01:05] also, you know, the Odyssey holds many leadership messages
[00:01:09] that businesses can use to take it a little bit to the economic
[00:01:12] side. So we see now, in this specific location I told
[00:01:16] you about, where Odysseus was tied for the song of the sirens, a leader
[00:01:20] who shows that he is not invincible, a leader who
[00:01:23] understands his weaknesses and takes
[00:01:27] preventive measures.
[00:01:37] Anyway, it's a fantastic one. I've already seen it twice
[00:01:40] and I'm planning the third one slowly. And I think
[00:01:44] you've made me want to watch it too. I haven't had time, Stavros,
[00:01:47] to find 2-3 hours. You should. What should? Everyone
[00:01:51] tells me it's a very good
[00:01:54] movie. And let me tell you a little about the economy of the region, because
[00:01:58] many wonder about all this. The movie if it will have an impact on the tourism of
[00:02:02] the region. Traditionally, we see that when a
[00:02:05] movie is filmed somewhere, it becomes a pole of attraction for tourists. And in this
[00:02:09] case, of course, now because I did a little research here for your
[00:02:13] show, tourist traffic has increased in the islands. Of course, the
[00:02:16] locals here estimate that this is mainly due to geopolitical
[00:02:20] uncertainty and the attraction of tourists due to the
[00:02:23] movie has not yet been reflected. But what is
[00:02:27] interesting is that there is
[00:02:30] intense activity for real estate in the islands after the
[00:02:34] movie, and the locals here estimate that the
[00:02:37] value of properties in Lipari, for example, another place on
[00:02:41] the neighboring island, the largest of the Aeolian
[00:02:45] islands, where scenes were also filmed, will increase. So they estimate
[00:02:48] that property values will rise due to the
[00:02:51] movie. So this is interesting for the real estate
[00:02:55] of the area. Thank you very, very much for this connection.
[00:02:58] You took us on a little trip,
[00:03:01] but you also brought us all this information.
[00:03:05] We thank you very much for these images. You convinced me, both you and Stavros. I will
[00:03:09] watch it. I will get to know the investor,
[00:03:12] try to buy
[00:03:14] Odysseus's palace, I don't know, or he will look for where Troy was to
[00:03:18] invest, you say. There are many such people, don't say it. Okay, now
[00:03:21] we've seen everything in this life, why not? However, it is a given that tourism
[00:03:25] is strengthened in all these areas, both abroad where filming has taken place
[00:03:29] and in Greece. Of course, we have
[00:04:19] So, do you want me to take you to an
[00:04:23] image that, unfortunately, does not surprise us? And I want to say that
[00:04:26] we have seen it happen in schools, in hospitals, in public
[00:04:30] places. This incident happened in the hospital of
[00:04:33] Corinth, in broad daylight, 2 to 3 in the
[00:04:36] afternoon, inside the emergency department,
[00:04:40] while a doctor and a nurse were examining a
[00:04:43] patient, this large piece of the false ceiling
[00:04:47] fell on them. Fortunately,
[00:04:49] the doctor, the nurse, and
[00:04:52] the patient were only slightly injured. This
[00:04:55] happened because we did a report, we spoke, they told us that they went to
[00:04:59] pull a curtain, this one, guys, that separates the
[00:05:02] patients. So, while they were pulling the curtain, the piece of the ceiling also
[00:05:06] fell. These are shocking images that you're bringing
[00:05:09] us, Rena. Let's say, however, that this space had been made. It had been inaugurated
[00:05:13] a month before, precisely, Tina. The inaugurations had
[00:05:16] taken place in this specific room, where
[00:05:20] Adonis Georgiadis was present, and the ribbon was cut there.
[00:05:23] This is essentially the tragicomic part. The
[00:05:26] company of the project has undertaken the
[00:05:29] restoration of the damages. However, the employees
[00:05:33] believe that there are still faulty constructions, that some supports
[00:05:36] are still, even now, after the incident, in the wrong
[00:05:40] places. So, it needs to be...
[00:05:59] to cut ribbons or at least when we cut ribbons, these
[00:06:02] constructions should really be finished and
[00:06:06] completed and done correctly. I mean, now we're talking about health
[00:06:10] facilities, right? Healthcare.
[00:16:24] Theodosis Panou once again to
[00:16:26] open up with Takis Karvouniaris, who is
[00:16:30] a journalist from Fly News, a colleague,
[00:16:34] to open up the topic with
[00:16:37] the 90-year-old man who was found
[00:16:40] in a freezer in Mystras.
[00:16:43] Theodosis, tell us what new information we have about this
[00:16:46] case, so we can also go to Mr. The most important thing of all is that
[00:16:50] we are waiting for the autopsy from the
[00:16:54] coroner. Now, due to the deep freezing, because that's
[00:16:57] what we're discussing, they had put his father's body in a large professional
[00:17:00] freezer. How long had he been there?
[00:17:04] However, precisely, and above
[00:17:10] the freezer, I must tell you that he had placed heavy
[00:17:13] wood from a bed
[00:17:17] and wood from a bed to
[00:17:21] seal this whole
[00:17:24] professional
[00:17:26] better. Now, as you understand, after deep
[00:17:30] freezing, the coroner could not perform
[00:17:33] any examinations in the previous
[00:17:34] days.
[00:17:37] So today, the autopsy is expected to begin, where two
[00:17:41] things will be clarified, but mainly one basic thing,
[00:17:44] the cause of death, because it
[00:17:48] is important to establish this, how
[00:17:51] the man died, whether it was due to pathological reasons, as his
[00:17:54] son claims, or something else happened, because this also needs to be established and
[00:17:58] of course, criminal activity must be ruled out. Exactly, if
[00:18:01] possible, to determine the
[00:18:04] time of death. However, I fear that this
[00:18:08] will be difficult. A date can be given
[00:18:11] by the coroner. Completing the report to give the floor to
[00:18:14] our good colleague, the police also have testimonies in their hands
[00:18:18] from his sister saying that she hasn't seen her father for four to
[00:18:21] five years, and some neighbors who
[00:18:24] knew the 90-year-old, who was also a
[00:18:28] teacher, also say that they haven't seen him in more than
[00:18:31] 2.5-3 years circulating in the area.
[00:18:35] We shall see what the coroner says. It's an
[00:18:38] incredible case and we understand that the
[00:18:41] local community is also naturally shocked by these
[00:18:45] developments. Yes, of course, this is
[00:18:49] a macabre case that has shocked the
[00:18:52] entire country. I don't have much to add to what my
[00:18:55] colleague said. The forensic
[00:18:58] report that will be conducted
[00:19:01] today is very important. It will shed light on when the
[00:19:04] 90-year-old passed away. Of course, and the causes. I
[00:19:08] remind you that the 55-year-old has claimed
[00:19:12] that his father passed away 2.5 years ago, and since then he has been collecting his
[00:19:15] pension. Of course, if any evidence emerges
[00:19:19] from the investigation by the coroner that
[00:19:21] points to criminal activity, you understand that the facts of the
[00:19:24] case will change. The 55-year-old, I should tell you, will
[00:19:28] apologize tomorrow to the prosecutor of the Sparti Court of First Instance. He was granted an extension
[00:19:31] yesterday,
[00:19:33] as
[00:19:36] he appeared in court. And also, according to my
[00:19:39] information, he will claim
[00:19:43] that he has psychological problems. All this is being investigated
[00:19:46] by the authorities. You know the timeline of the
[00:19:49] case. The day before yesterday, the
[00:19:52] police, after a thorough investigation,
[00:19:56] entered the hotel you see behind me and in its basement
[00:19:59] found his body. The police had information
[00:20:03] and entered the hotel to search. So, what
[00:20:07] was the element that led them there after all this time?
[00:20:10] There
[00:20:12] were some reports or
[00:20:14] complaints,
[00:20:17] and the residents said that they hadn't seen the
[00:20:21] 90-year-old for several years and he had disappeared.
[00:20:25] So the police were called, the police
[00:20:27] called the 55-year-old to give explanations. He
[00:20:30] claimed that his father had not disappeared but was residing in
[00:20:34] Athens in an apartment in Kaisariani,
[00:20:38] where he was being looked after by a woman.
[00:20:41] This did not convince the police, so the day before yesterday, the
[00:20:45] police proceeded with the operation where in the basement of the
[00:20:48] hotel. which was
[00:20:51] naked, wrapped in
[00:20:55] plastic wrap, and as the colleague said, there were
[00:20:59] pieces of wood from a bed on it. So the
[00:21:02] 55-year-old was arrested in front of the
[00:21:06] 55-year-old's hotel. You are there, and
[00:21:08] obviously, for these complaints to reach the police, there must have been
[00:21:12] some whispering in the local community about the absence
[00:21:16] of the 90-year-old. What does the local community say there?
[00:21:21] The truth is that many residents
[00:21:25] wondered where the 90-year-old was. They hadn't seen him
[00:21:29] for a long time. However, the
[00:21:31] 55-year-old didn't have,
[00:21:35] shall I say, many communicative relationships with the
[00:21:38] locals here or generally with the residents, according
[00:21:41] to what the information tells me. So they couldn't easily approach him and
[00:21:45] ask him what exactly was happening. You know that behind closed
[00:21:49] doors, no one can know what might be happening, and not
[00:21:53] everyone has the courage to go and ask and get information. If you
[00:21:56] allow me, the 90-year-old, however,
[00:22:00] was known, according to the information, in the local community, as he was also a
[00:22:04] teacher and seems to have had relations with the local
[00:22:07] community despite the fact that in recent years, some reports
[00:22:11] say he was also facing problems of senile
[00:22:14] dementia.
[00:22:17] He was a teacher, he definitely had a relationship with the local community, of course.
[00:22:21] As for what exactly, what exactly he was suffering from or what his
[00:22:25] health condition was, I am not in a position to know personally.
[00:22:28] Beyond that, the authorities
[00:22:31] are investigating the case, so we are awaiting the very important, as I said
[00:22:34] at the beginning, forensic report that we are
[00:22:37] expecting any moment now, and I think it will
[00:22:41] shed light on the case.
[00:22:43] However, there is also a question mark
[00:22:47] that remains to be...
[00:22:54] And it seems that he didn't need
[00:22:56] financial means to keep
[00:23:00] collecting his pension in a good tourist
[00:23:04] spot.
[00:23:07] It has an archaeological significance that is not included in the
[00:23:10] local context. As
[00:23:13] you understand, this hotel could have been working 12 months a
[00:23:17] year instead of taking his pension.
[00:23:23] The month that the father received, the authorities' investigation, I think, will answer these questions. Thank you very
[00:23:27] much to both of you. Take
[00:23:30] care. And on that note, I would add that the hotel, although it has been
[00:23:33] closed for several years, does not appear to be abandoned. It is in very good condition.
[00:23:37] Yes, we see it maintained. Of course, it seems it wasn't working,
[00:23:40] but as his sister also said in a statement, his sister,
[00:23:44] yes, yes, in a statement she had given, that she never understood why this
[00:23:48] unit that her family had built with
[00:23:52] great effort, and it is a good unit as you can see, at least
[00:23:55] externally, she wasn't operating it. These are questions that
[00:24:06] a pediatrician, as during the
[00:24:09] summer there is a surge in children's
[00:24:13] illnesses. We see, I at least have
[00:24:16] four nieces, Stavros, and all four of them
[00:24:22] What exactly is happening, Ms. Manioti? That's right, summer
[00:24:25] is a time when our lifestyle changes a bit. We travel a lot,
[00:24:29] we gather a lot, in hotels, camps,
[00:24:33] pools, pools that often may have inadequate
[00:24:36] chlorination. We eat out often.
[00:24:39] That's right, the increased temperature also favors
[00:24:42] the proliferation of bacteria, and we also don't
[00:24:45] follow hygiene rules very much, hand washing, etc. We are a little
[00:24:49] more careful in winter. We don't easily find soap to wash our
[00:24:53] hands and so on. So it's true, there is a surge in
[00:24:57] infections now. We have many gastroenteritis cases,
[00:25:00] viral gastroenteritis from norovirus, which has increased
[00:25:03] transmissibility, from adenovirus, which can also cause respiratory symptoms, such as a
[00:25:07] cough, a bronchitis. Let's also see the cards if we can,
[00:25:11] at the same time. These are transmitted
[00:25:13] mainly in viral gastroenteritis from
[00:25:17] person to person, mainly through the fecal-oral
[00:25:21] route, meaning from feces to our hands, to our mouth. So what do we do? We wash our
[00:25:24] hands thoroughly. After a diaper change, they can
[00:25:28] also be transmitted from contaminated surfaces, contaminated food or
[00:25:31] water. Bacterial gastroenteritis from
[00:25:34] salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, are transmitted
[00:25:37] mainly from food, from contaminated food and water, mainly
[00:25:41] from unpasteurized milk,
[00:25:44] meats, poultry that are not well cooked,
[00:25:48] eggs that are not well boiled. There is what we call
[00:25:51] cross-contamination. For example, we can cut a poultry product that is
[00:25:55] contaminated on a surface with a knife and then go and cut
[00:25:58] vegetables or fruits, so it will be transmitted from there as well.
[00:26:04] Yes, we also have many respiratory infections. Flu season has started
[00:26:07] now. We have parainfluenza,
[00:26:11] COVID. We have strep throat all year round, just like
[00:26:14] now. We have skin infections, mainly staphylococcal,
[00:26:17] from a sting,
[00:26:20] from a scratch on the skin. Staphylococcus is a normal part of our skin flora, but when we have a
[00:26:24] break in the skin's integrity, our skin gets infected and we get what we call
[00:26:28] impetigo. Also, from many dives, children get outer ear
[00:26:31] infections. We also say swimmer's
[00:26:35] ear when there is moisture in the external auditory canal, so this
[00:26:38] also favors the multiplication
[00:26:42] of various microbes. So we definitely need to wash our
[00:26:45] hands thoroughly before eating, after going to the toilet, to dry our
[00:26:49] ears. We need to be careful not to swallow water
[00:26:53] from swimming pools because gastroenteritis can be transmitted, but
[00:26:56] not urinary tract infections. Urinary tract infections are rarer. So this is a
[00:27:00] myth. And of course, if
[00:27:03] a child has symptoms of infection, we keep them home. So we are
[00:27:07] careful. Why, more precisely,
[00:27:10] why in the summer, why do we have this
[00:27:13] surge in these months? Besides the crowding and the movements and all that, it's also the rise in
[00:27:17] temperature that can play a role, and it's also because we relax
[00:27:20] the hygiene measures a bit. We are definitely
[00:27:24] in enclosed spaces with
[00:27:26] air conditioning, many people who are not well ventilated, so there
[00:27:30] the transmission of microbes can be easy. We definitely don't
[00:27:34] get sick from ice cream, cold water, and air conditioning, so let's
[00:27:37] say that. Now we are refuting a myth with which we
[00:27:40] grew up. Ice cream, it's cold, my
[00:27:44] throat will hurt. The air conditioner, what it can do to us is to dry our mucous membranes,
[00:27:48] to have dry eyes, a dry cough, and
[00:27:52] we definitely should not have it directly on us, meaning the children, so that they don't
[00:27:55] get what we call a chill. We want
[00:27:58] ice cream. We want ice cream, and it is mandatory and recommended by the
[00:28:01] pediatrician. But some days of the week,
[00:28:05] we don't use it as a punishment or as a reward, we don't
[00:28:09] demonize it.
[00:28:11] The position or in the summer, seven out of seven, I don't recommend
[00:28:14] it that much, unless we make it with our mom and dad,
[00:28:18] with honey, with frozen fruits, a healthier smoothie,
[00:28:21] this is not ice cream, sorry, however, we also have
[00:28:24] camps where all the children gather,
[00:28:28] there is close contact between children in camps and not
[00:28:31] only that. There are also that may contribute to the
[00:28:34] spread of viruses, certainly cousins, friends,
[00:28:37] and respiratory infections, meaning with droplets,
[00:28:41] with sneezing, with coughing, these spread very easily and especially because
[00:28:44] we don't wash our hands much now, we don't have a sanitizer with us, we don't find
[00:28:48] much soap to wash our hands, this plays a very important
[00:28:52] role to tell parents that there is no need for panic because many of you know
[00:28:56] that when they pack their bags to go on vacation and suddenly the child develops
[00:28:59] a 39 fever, it kind of spoils their vacation, all of this,
[00:29:03] but what should they do in this case, because many
[00:29:07] times the tests that are available in pharmacies
[00:29:10] may not show some of the indications that can be
[00:29:13] measured. Certainly, the rapid tests that are available in pharmacies
[00:29:17] show specific viruses and also have a percentage
[00:29:20] of false positives
[00:29:23] results. Certainly, a clinical picture
[00:29:26] matters and they should contact their pediatrician if something
[00:29:30] worries them, usually about fever above.
[00:29:36] If it continues for more than 3-2 days without improvement, meaning if the fever
[00:29:39] doesn't drop and it flows in waves, we should definitely contact our
[00:29:43] pediatrician, as well as earlier to see if our child is different, more
[00:29:47] lethargic, sleepy, or agitated, we should definitely
[00:29:50] contact our pediatrician, and of course babies who are one or two
[00:29:54] months old and have a fever, this is an emergency, we must
[00:29:57] consult our pediatrician, and many other symptoms if we have
[00:30:01] repeated diarrhea. For vomiting that we cannot manage at home,
[00:30:05] we are very afraid of dehydration, so we should definitely talk to our
[00:30:08] pediatrician, just as now we also have many accidents, falls,
[00:30:12] head injuries, if we see after a fall our child vomiting or
[00:30:16] being more sleepy, we contact our pediatrician again, we have
[00:30:19] many allergies now, be careful with those who have a history of
[00:30:23] anaphylaxis, that's why in our suitcase the first thing we need to
[00:30:26] have and put in is to act
[00:30:30] according to the child's history, if he has any chronic illness. These are the first
[00:30:33] medicines we will put in the suitcase, asthma, epilepsy, anaphylaxis,
[00:30:37] we put them, these are the first medicines we need to
[00:30:41] put in and certainly our first vacation with the baby, I have to
[00:30:44] say, we need to go to a
[00:30:47] place that is not so Instagrammable as to have
[00:30:50] a pediatrician, health center and pharmacy nearby, it is very, very, very
[00:30:54] important, however simple it may sound, it is a very important piece of advice,
[00:30:58] we are careful not to get infected.
