The effects of the Covid-19 coronavirus are not just about those who have caught it. The outbreak has had significant knock-on effects on the Chinese economy, as well as the tourism industry worldwide.
In Greece, about 200,000 tourists arrived in 2019 and at least 250,000 were expected this year.
The island of Santorini is a beloved destination for many Chinese tourists. But since the outbreak, scores are simply not showing up.
The rate may be small, but it is critical, as Chinese tourists travel in low demand times (especially in winter, when they have New Year's holidays). Also, Chinese people spend more on their holidays than average tourists spend in Europe.
Of the Chinese tourists coming to Greece, 90% end up in Santorini.
