He states that for a long time there has been talk of general protection measures, but we have not succeeded: distance, masks, regular hand washing and avoiding areas where the risk is greater than infection.
“Our situation is getting worse, but the increase came after the Sretenje holiday. There has been a smooth but steady increase since January 25.” It was clearly stated for the first time on February 18 that we must seriously tighten the measures. ” Kon said.
According to him, it is very encouraging that the number is not growing day by day.
“The most important thing is to understand that the medical part of the Crisis Staff asked that it be open only for groceries, pharmacies and fuel, and that everything be closed during the weekend. “We have never placed particular emphasis on curfew,” Kon said.
He called on citizens to get vaccinated, stating that now is the time for the complete expulsion of the virus.
“The immunity obtained by vaccination is significantly stronger than even the immunity obtained by the mildest infection. I can’t say that, but the indicators are first,” says Kon.
