“Το πιο επείγον θέμα προς διευκρίνιση για το θαλάσσιο τουρισμό -για να σωθεί ό,τι είναι δυνατόν να σωθεί το 2020- είναι να συμφωνηθούν ευρωπαϊκά πρωτόκολλα το συντομότερο για τα αεροδρόμια, τις πτήσεις, τα λιμάνια και τη διαμονή, ώστε να υπάρξει ουσιαστική μεταστροφή στη ψυχολογία των ανθρώπων, ελπίζοντας πάντα ότι θα έχουμε θετικές εξελίξεις και ανακοινώσεις για την ιατρική αντιμετώπιση του Covid-19.  Ευελπιστώ για εξελίξεις μέσα στο Μάιο.
