According to official data, every 27 minutes we have one death related to KOVID-19, but objectively every ten minutes we have a death related to the epidemic, said the epidemiologist and member of the Crisis Staff of Serbia Predrag Kon, who estimated that the country is in a “serious situation”.
The epidemiologist answered questions from citizens about the Crisis Staff and the situation with the epidemic live on TV EN 1.
“Undoubtedly the current epidemiological situation is extraordinary, but it is not catastrophic, we do not have a situation to urgently increase hospital capacity, the rapid filling of hospitals has stopped, the curve of high numbers is stabilizing, but we are far from saying that the situation is good.” said Dr. Conn.
On the occasion of the upcoming season of various holidays and celebrations, he said that the ban on gathering more than five people should remain in force.
Asked why no new measures have been introduced and how Prime Minister Anna Bernabic introduced herself at the Crisis Staff meeting, Cohn reiterated that he did not understand her explanation, but “the main thing and the only result of the Crisis Staff meeting is vaccination, which is the only way out of this situation, and the measures would not change anything if there was no vaccination. “
The prime minister had said she did not believe in restrictive measures in the presence of vaccines and that the only way out of the situation was vaccination.
Asked if all vaccines were safe for children, Kon said only Pfizer could be used, as only it was approved for people over 12 years of age.
