Djerlek said that the third wave surpassed the first two and that there are now more patients in the statistics than in the first two.
– We did not expect the third wave to be so strong, or to last that long. In terms of age categories, we have people of all ages in hospitals. From babies to the elderly. As for the deceased, most of them are older fellow citizens, but clinicians have seen that the youngest in a short time go from a mild clinical picture to a serious one, and that they have to wear a respirator, after which they die.
Dr. Đerlek pointed out that not everything is so black and that now we all have more experience in fighting the virus. He also stated that we must take care of patients suffering from other illnesses, and not just those with the corona virus.

– Masks not only protect against kovida 19, but also have an impact on reducing the number of flu patients. We cannot judge everyone on the basis of a small group of people, as most still respect the measures.

– It is essential that the measures are respected, if we respect them, the transmission of the virus will fall. As for the law, the minister has been given much greater powers than before, and can decide on entry into the country and the conditions under which it is allowed – said Djerlek, noting that he recommends that all citizens be vaccinated against the kovid when the vaccine arrives. to Serbia and be approved by our agency.
