By June 18, World Health Organization figures revealed a rise in cases of the virus of 293% in the country, and there are currently more active cases of the virus in Greece than at any other point during the pandemic. Local health authorities have reported that more than 100 tourists have tested positive for the virus since reopening its borders. Government spokesman, Stelios Petsas, said that the new measures are being implemented as authorities have recorded four times as many positive coronavirus tests at the Greek-Bulgarian border crossing of Promachonas than at Athens' International Airport between July 1 to 11.
