Kon: We're doing fine so far; We don’t consider measures for the holidays now VIDEO

A total of 66 people have died and 2.867 tested positive since the outbreak of the pandemic, Dr Kisic Tepavcevic said, adding that 1.907 people who tested positive for coronavirus had been hospitalized, including 127 who are on respirators.
1.586 people had been tested over the previous 24 hours, bringing the total number of people tested in Serbia to 12.347.
Epidemiologist Predrag Kon commented on the news of the filling of capacities in Nis.
"Capacities are filling up everywhere. I am not talking now about mild cases, but medium and severe cases. We will have continued demand for additional capacity," Predrag Kon said.
Stevanovic added that there are expansion plans for each region according to capacity.
"Rationalization requires that patients be concentrated as much as possible. This means filling one place to the maximum, then filling the next one," Stevanovic said. He also answered a question regarding the status of workers at the Jura plant.
"As for the measures discussed, it is a mandatory reduction in the number of workers, and I have no answer to the question of what if it is not respected. We are in a state of emergency and everyone should do their job," Predrag Kon said.
Kon said the lack of staff had the effect on the number of people tested.
"We do not have the staff to respond to the pressure of a rapid leap in the number of cases to be tested. That is a very serious question," he said.
"Someone thought they could do more than this and that is essential. The problem is data entry and logistics, as the staff members need to be medically educated.
It's a complicated job. How others are coping with this problem successfully? It depends on the process of preparation," he added.
