He said it is certain that we will not avoid the third peak that awaits us at the end of the year.
Jankovi told RTS that the situation in southern Serbia is calmer than a month ago.
“Currently, we have 39 patients in the Niu Clinical Center, eight of whom are in the intensive care unit. Five are still on mechanical ventilation. These are mostly patients who were admitted a few weeks ago. We have patients they have been on mechanical ventilation for more than a month. “Jankovi explained.
He said it might be too pessimistic to say that some trends are slowly catching on, which could indicate new heat.
Jankovi stated that the situation in other kovid hospitals in southern Serbia, in Vranje, Leskovac and Krujevac, is stable.
He believes that the Clinical Center in Niu is a single hospital, which was the most crowded, especially the intensive care unit because all the difficult patients from all over Southeastern Serbia stayed there.
Jankovi stated that they had more than 1,000 patients in the intensive care unit.
“It seems to me that the first peak was more difficult for all of us because it surprised us a bit. The better organization in the second peak allowed us to treat mainly the most difficult and demanding patients. The medium weight patients were kept in the local hospital, which that gave us the opportunity to save many human lives, “said Dr. Jankovi.
He stressed that the third peak of the epidemic will not be avoided and that the only question is whether it will be in November or December.
“I think the entire health system, especially in the second peak, has shown some stability, strength and mutual solidarity,” said Dr. Jankovi.
It is problematic for him that many people, especially high school students, show up at respiratory clinics with symptoms of respiratory illnesses.
“The question of which of these will be the crown and the common cold or the flu, but it is realistic that the number of patients will increase,” explained Jankovi.
