MERA25 head Yanis Varoufakis tests positive for the coronavirus

"I am recovering, and grateful that I was vaccinated"

Newsroom June 23 04:21

The secretary of the leftist party MERA25, Yanis Varoufakis, tested positive for the coronavirus.

As he states in his post, he is recovering and grateful that he was vaccinated.

The whole post: “The pandemic was overshadowed by inflation, war, and ecology but is still present. After a positive PCR, I am recovering, grateful that I was vaccinated and with the minds of the people of the NHS who, after 2.5 years of exhaustion, are struggling to offer work with no support”.
