GORAN STEVANOVIĆ Don’t indulge yourself at home
The director of the KCS Infectious Diseases Clinic, Goran Stevanović, said the biggest problem is patients trying to treat themselves at home.
– The percentage of those who self-medicate at home is growing, who think that this can be transmitted by itself. Usually when they are diagnosed, to avoid hospital treatment, they just don’t reappear. These patients appear to us after five, seven or ten days of home self-treatment and come with a severe clinical picture. They usually go to intensive care units after admission and are the most at risk, he said.
