The year left behind was marked by a virus: long-lasting, exhausting, deadly. The Crown epidemic gave birth to many heroes, patients and doctors, and then ordinary citizens who did not hesitate to help.

One member of the crisis staff, epidemiologist Dr. Predrag Kon, is in 2020. marked as a person who in many ways crossed its borders, all in an effort that, as they say, “get out of the state of war” and “overcome this scourge.”

On the fear that he himself is infected …

– I am in daily contact with people who have a crown. Here at the City Institute of Public Health, I am constantly in conversation with the technicians who are in contact with the infected. However, even though I am in contact, I didn’t think I was infected because believe me, you can’t see anyone here without a mask for a moment. I’ve never been in self-isolation.

On the relationship with other colleagues and Dr. Nestorović

– Of course, I had certain disappointments, and the attacks that came from the people with whom I worked and cooperated were the hardest for me. The attack by my teacher, Dr. Radovanović, hurt me terribly. However, I like to say that history will judge what happened, which decisions were good and which were not.

– He left the Crisis Staff voluntarily and I have nothing more to comment on. I just don’t understand why, when you’ve left crisis staff, you keep commenting on staff decisions. That’s not clear to me, really.

Doctor’s neckline

– The most important thing for me is that there was an attempt to divide the doctor. It is not talked about. We are all, I repeat, in the same task. The recommended actions were largely taken by joint decision. There were divisions in thinking, but the decisions that were made were common.
