"The new strain of coronavirus omicron has come to more than 60 countries. There are still no confirmed cases in our country, but that does not mean that the virus is not there," said Kon.
As he stated, the number of newly infected people in Serbia is much smaller, and the numbers are falling.

He stated that the number of infected people is decreasing, as well as the number of patients in intensive care, but that the situation is still not completely favorable, because, as he says, we still have a high number of deaths.

He stated this morning that the winter break should start before St. Nicholas, that is, on December 19, among other things, because then gastarbeiters from EU countries return to the country, where the delta strain of coronavirus is "raging".

He spoke about an incident in which protesters shouted in front of his apartment that he was Ustasha and compared him to the Nazi doctor Josef Mengele.

He told the citizens not to do that anymore, because neither of them is to blame for anything.

"We can't see the results yet because that measure has just started to be applied. It is just an introduction to something that should be implemented 24 hours a day. It is an epidemiological position. Is it too late to talk now? We requested these measures to be implemented since spring", said a member of the Crisis Staff.

Kon welcomed the measures, but also said: I am not satisfied because I think that these measures will not be efficient enough.
His position is that they should have been brought back in July.

He said that the medical part of the staff had consultations with Prime Minister Ana Brnabi and that he did not see any improvement, which is why he hopes that the attitude towards the epidemiological situation will "change".

He told K1 television that the medical part of the staff insisted at yesterday's session that it be publicly announced that they were in favor of introducing more restrictive measures. He also said that he did not know why COVID passes were not introduced yesterday. He also pointed out that he personally did everything and that he begged to be recalled if it bothered them.

He added that the alternative to COVID passes is lockdown.
"As for COVID passes, it was a little late. We discussed it very seriously back in May, at the city level. It was said that the introduction was unconstitutional and it was stopped being talked about," Kon told TV Prva.
