surprisingly there is no service using 133 Does 112 work too?

according to a news story on greek newspaper i just found, only 22% of europeans are aware of the existence of 112. greece is at the bottom of the list with 4% but also italy and britain (6%) are very low as well

Why would you have different numbers for different emergency departments? If my arm is on fire* I don't want to stop to think about whether I should call the fire dept. or the ambulance...just call 911 and let the dispatcher think while I'm busy panicking.

*may be an extreme example.

then again googling for "europe survey 112 22%" get this as the first result
