Serbia emerges from epidemiological emergency

Belgrade, 14 May 2021

Provincial Secretary of Health and member of the COVID-19 crisis response team Zoran Gojkovic stated today that the team proposed further mitigation of measures related to the work of hairdressing salons and organising professional gatherings, since, as he said, we came out of the emergency epidemiological situation.

In a statement to the press after the session of the team, Gojkovic noted that based on the indicators, Serbia has come out of the epidemiological emergency situation.

He warned that the situation is still uncertain, because there are still hundreds of newly infected people a day, but that the tendency of admission and discharge of infected people in health institutions is good.

The epidemiologist said that the organisation of events for young people was also discussed, and that if 50% of the adult population is vaccinated, the organisation of various types of events will be possible.

Less than two weeks have passed since the end of the Easter and May Day holidays, and there is still a good tendency with a drop in new cases, said the epidemiologist, adding that it is especially important to vaccinate between 20,000 and 23,000 citizens every day.

At this moment, more than 2.25 million adult citizens have received at least one dose of the vaccine, said Gojkovic.

According to him, more than 1.7 million citizens have received both doses of the vaccine, and that is what is good, what makes us happy and what is an indicator that we are on the right track to get out of the uncertain epidemiological situation.
