– The rule that kovid only affects elderly people is no longer valid, we have had cases where young people end up as a severe case on a respirator in half an hour. Unfortunately, in the end, they lose their lives – said Djerlek.
He explained that faster measures were taken before, but now everyone has more experience.

“Officials who reject the vaccine will also be sanctioned”
Speaking about mandatory vaccination and sanctioning citizens who reject it, the Secretary of State said:
– The law is already known. The minister received greater powers. It can issue decrees or orders about entering our country, what to do, but also mandatory immunizations. I would recommend that all citizens get vaccinated. We will select the vaccine after the seal of our Medicines Agency. I’m sure they will approve the safe. All vaccines will be free – he said.
He noted that the vaccination of citizens will come after health workers, the army and the police, for whom vaccination will be mandatory.
If vaccination is mandatory, Djerlek stressed that it will also apply to state officials.
– The law is the same for everyone, whether or not it performs a state function. We are first and foremost citizens of this country. All those for whom immunization is mandatory will be sanctioned, and will not be vaccinated – he concluded.

– It is essential that all the measures that have been adopted so far are respected. Another thing we suggest is that masks are mandatory indoors, but also outdoors, especially in pedestrian areas. We have suggested that the facilities where the infection occurs, which are mainly nightclubs, not work after 6 pm Mainly referring to nightclubs. It is a fixed term of two weeks. A term measure would mean observing the effect of its effect after two weeks, Kon said today.
