Hospital
Serbian Minister of Health Zlatibor Loncar said on July 14 that health institutions in Belgrade for coronavirus patients were over 90 percent full.
Loncar told a Crisis Headquarters news conference that during the day the Institute for Rheumatology which had 100 beds would join the covid system.
He added that patients in a temporary hospital in the Belgrade Arena and other hospitals were being discharged "to make room for other patients." Loncar also said that patients from Belgrade were being sent to Smederevo, Pozarevac, Smederevska Palanka, where there was room.
Batut Institute deputy director Darija Kisic Tepavcevic has said that the Crisis Headquarters did not consider introducing restrictions on movement to curb the epidemic. "All of us are now personally responsible for preventing ourselves from becoming infected and acting as if we were all potential carriers of the virus" and that everyone needs to follow the rules and wear masks indoors, keep our distances from one another and wash our hands frequently.
