"We could, experts warn, have full hospitals again and thousands of newly infected people on a daily basis," Kon said.
He stated that the delta strain is currently dominant in the world and added that the problem is not the new strain but the insufficient number of vaccinated.

"But what has to worry us is - Great Britain. If the Chinese strain was one to infect three, this Indian strain is to infect five to six," says Kon.
He adds that vaccines also protect against the Indian strain, and when asked if it is possible to get symptoms of the virus, in addition to vaccination, he answered:

According to him, the virus "moved" towards a younger age, but it decreased in the total population at all ages.
He said that the current epidemiological situation is completely different than last year at the same time, especially thanks to immunization, so it cannot be expected to be as bad as then.

"The epidemic process has its own rules, theres an incubation phase, a period that must pass in order to review the effect of measures implemented. The number of days is approximately seven to ten," he said.

He said that a way must be found to break the chain of spreading the virus and make it easier for doctors.

As for the next session of the Crisis Staff, which was expected to be held tomorrow, Kon said that it was postponed.
"The Crisis Staff has been postponed, that's true. Why it's postponed, I don't have an answer at the moment," says Kon.

"For Belgrade, I can say that the situation is disastrous and that we are coming to the point that there is no free capacities in hospitals," he said, adding that the occupancy in hospitals is nearing the end.

According to him, only pharmacies, grocery stores and gas stations would remain open. He also points out that the state of emergency has no alternative "otherwise we will burst like a rattle".
He also said that the result can only be a complete prevention of contacts.

He said that something must be done by the weekend and that until then, everyone has time to think about how it could be implemented. The main places of infection have been spotted, restaurants and cafes, while the ski slopes are not places of infection, but we will leave that for Friday, said a member of the Crisis Staff.

After several months of analysis, Serbian scientists have determined that a 56-year-old man, who died in Serbia on February 5 after severe, bilateral pneumonia, actually died of coronavirus, but that at that time it was not yet diagnosed.
