Greek health authorities remain on high alert after 12 additional deaths linked to flu complications were recorded nationwide, according to the latest epidemiological report released by the country’s public health agency. Although flu positivity in the general community has shown a marginal decline, the burden on the healthcare system has continued to grow over the past reporting week. Since the start of the current surveillance period, Greece has reported 36 deaths and 105 ICU admissions due to laboratory-confirmed influenza. Health officials stress that these figures reflect severe cases and underline the ongoing risk posed by seasonal flu, particularly to vulnerable populations. This development is adding further strain to the healthcare system during the peak respiratory virus season.
