Mr Economou made it absolutely clear that the faithful who have not been vaccinated will enter the Churches only with the demonstration of rapid test and if it is found that they do not have them, sanctions will be imposed according to the law.

He also added that with the tests, the unvaccinated will be able to do only things that are absolutely necessary for their survival.
