Main opposition SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance leader Alexis Tsipras tested positive for COVID-19, as he posted on social media on Sunday.
"The PCR test found me positive," he said, adding that he has got the third dose of the vaccine and his symptoms are mild.
His wife and his kids were found negative.
Σε προληπτικό μοριακό έλεγχο βρέθηκα χθες βράδυ θετικός. Ευτυχώς η Μπέττυ και τα παιδιά είναι αρνητικοί.
Έχω μέχρι στιγμής ήπια συμπτώματα και ελπίζω να είμαι σύντομα υγιής.— Αλέξης Τσίπρας - Alexis Tsipras (@atsipras) January 9, 2022
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Development Minister Adonis Georgiadis wished the opposition leader a speedy recovery.
After wishing him a quick recovery, Mitsotakis said he is "sure everything will go well" as his political rival had received the booster shot.
Εύχομαι περαστικά στον Αλέξη Τσίπρα! Έχοντας κάνει και την αναμνηστική δόση του εμβολίου, είμαι σίγουρος ότι όλα θα πάνε καλά.
