The Lamia Prosecutor’s Office ordered the doctor be examined by psychiatrists of the Public Hospital as provided by law. The woman was examined both at the Lamia Hospital and at the on-duty Psychiatric Hospital in Athens, where she was treated on Wednesday night after arriving by an ambulance escorted by a police car.

Both psychiatrists agreed that she should remain at the Psychiatric Hospital of Attica for follow-up tests and treatment.

The doctor had been removed from the Director of the Lamia Hospital, Elias Karageorgos, from the vaccination procedure, and with the intervention of the head of the 5th Health Authority region, Fotis Seretis, she was referred to the Disciplinary Committee of the Health District.
