According to the most recent data, Kragujevac is on the list of cities in terms of the number of people who are self-isolated, up to 214. How important this is is shown by the fact that we only have 17 such cases in Belgrade, which has a population of nearly two million.
So far, a total of 1,981 cases of infection have been recorded in Kragujevac. Twelve patients are being treated at the Kragujevac Clinical Center and two people are on a ventilator.
How much Kragujevac deviates from the pattern of the current situation is best seen if the situation is compared to other cities.
The number of people in self-isolation in Kragujevac, which has just over 150,000 inhabitants, is 214, while in Belgrade there are only 17. The second place on this list is Nis. In the city of approximately 186,000 inhabitants, there are 96 people in self-isolation, which is significantly less than in Kragujevac. Third place is held by Ćuprija, which was once also a hotbed, and now has 48 people in self-isolation.
So these numbers attest to the fact that something shouldn’t have happened, and if until recently Kragujevac was a “peaceful port” when it comes to the corona virus, now this city is increasingly referred to as a hotbed and potential bomb. crown, and the question arises as to what led to the worsening of the general situation.
THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR
As early as September 1, an elementary school sixth-grade student was given a measure of self-isolation because her parents were positive in the crown. She was not tested, even if her parents tested positive, but she came to the school to attend classes regularly.
This is not the only case of risky behavior in schools. Another student and her twin sister were in class, even if the parents knew she was in risky contact with a person who already had coronavirus.
Holidays, good weather, travel and relaxation – that could be another reason why Kragujevac is now marked as a hotspot.
On Friday, the supervision for those who returned from summer vacation came into force, and with this measure, everyone is obliged to report electronically, and in case it is necessary to be in self-isolation.
The epidemiologist at the Kragujevac Public Health Institute, Dr. Predrag Delic, previously said that around 200 people are examined daily in this city, including those who want to travel.
According to him, the relaxation contributed to the precarious situation, in addition to organizing celebrations where there is a greater possibility of contagion.
MORE IMPORTED CASES
The important thing is to stay in the country and avoid traveling, especially to places where the epidemiological situation is worse than in our country, is the case of the footballers of the futsal club “Ekonomac”.
As already reported by the media, up to six soccer players were infected with the corona virus at the Tuzla tournament, and this was previously confirmed by Dragan Vasiljević of the Kragujevac Institute of Public Health.
– We monitor their condition every day, we check if they have symptoms and we already have a list of their contacts – said Vasiljevic previously.
He pointed out that the biggest problem is infected people who don’t know exactly where they got infected, stating that they are controlling them and their contacts.
“That’s why we have more than 200 isolated people,” he added.
Kragujevac is now a real example of how the epidemiological landscape can easily change. It only took a month to travel from the “peaceful port” to the access point, and risky contacts and irresponsible behavior send people into self-isolation every day.
