The Crisis Staff met and discussed that new measures would be introduced, but epidemiologist Predrag Kon revealed that none of them had been adopted during the session, without ruling out the possibility that they would be adopted and published at the end of the day.

“Nothing has been brought in yet,” Conn said.

Do you respect the measurements?

– The medical part gave everything, asked quite abruptly that something change, for now it is in the ‘stand by’, I do not know until when. All of this was sent in writing, so a lot was communicated before. It is certainly about the economic aspect, an assessment that cannot be for the medical part, and control is currently the biggest problem – he said.

– All of us in the medical part, in a unique way, believe that the implementation, control of measures and the introduction of additional measures should be seriously stricter – he said.

– They listened to us well, we know what we are asking for, I cannot say what will be brought because that certainly depends on the non-medical part. We said it very explicitly – he said and explained that the decision depends on several factors.

– It is not about someone wanting something or not, it is about assessing what is possible to implement, the best at this time and I have no doubt that there is a good intention of all to stop this. As for the medical part, it is clear that contacts should be avoided and that all that should be done – he said.

Amendments to the law: isolation, quarantine …

– There will be changes in the Law in the Assembly, to define isolation, home quarantine, transportation, what the measures are. The situation is catastrophic and will not resolve itself, only by limiting contacts – he said.
