Epidemiologist Predrag Kon said today that “there are no new doctors” who can help the Serbian health system in the fight against coronavirus, stating that “a volunteer student cannot work with the most difficult cases.”

When asked if triage would be “the next scenario for Serbia,” Kon said that this still might not happen and that he hoped that patients would not return to their homes in Serbia because help could not be provided.
As he said, “as far as he knows”, no one has returned home due to lack of space.
When asked if there will be a new shutdown or a state of emergency, Kon said no closures like March and April are planned, nor a state of emergency.
“Now there is no news about the introduction of a state of emergency. At first it was necessary, because the virus was unknown to us,” said the epidemiologist.
He stated that they are now thinking of further reduction of working hours in catering, from working from home, kindergartens and teaching in schools.
