Agriculture Minister Branislav Nedimovic, who is also heading the government's crisis task group for the corona virus epidemic in the Nisava and Toplica District, stated on April 15 that testing in the Gerontology Center in Nis had shown that four more persons were positive for the corona virus, which raised the total number of infected in that center to 155.
Nedimovic told TV Pink that mass testing would be organized in Nis in the next few days, since it has been recognized as a new hot-spot, so that the infected are separated from the rest as soon as possible, and that disinfection would be stepped up.
"Mass testing in Nis will ensue in all institutions where we assessed it as necessary, as well as testing of the people who are referred to the Health Center or covid infirmaries," Nedimovic stated, adding that the task group for Nis had proposed the opening of new covid hospitals in the neighborhood, so that Nis would be relieved of some pressure.
