So far, 79 migrants have been found dead from the shipwreck in Kalamata and 104 others have been rescued.
But the tragedy still continues, according to surviving evidence, there are about 100 children in the last part of the ship. The survivors made these statements to the doctors at the Kalamata hospital, where they are being treated.
The cardiologist, director of the Cardiology Clinic of the Kalamata Hospital said that 30 immigrants are being treated so far and their condition is relatively good.
" Their problems are under control. Some have pneumonia, some others have total paralysis, some others have different problems because they got aspiration pneumonia. Their problems are to be expected. Mainly their psychological problem is the big problem and what they are anxiously looking for is to communicate with their relatives ", said Mr. Makaris.
He described as shocking the messages he receives on his mobile phone from relatives who are searching on board the fishing vessel. Some send him photos and give him information, asking if he has seen the relative they are looking for. At the same time, he receives constant calls from unknown numbers calling from places like Syria and Pakistan, from people worried about their fate. "They have sent me pictures asking if we have seen them," said the doctor.
" The ship had a lot of people, according to the information given to the coast guard and the police, unfortunately there were many people stranded. There were many people inside the boat, mostly women and children ", stressed Dimitris, Samaritan volunteer - rescuer of the Hellenic Red Cross.
