Ismaili: Failure to test frequent can cost us

He said the government has had to test coming from countries affected to prevent the spread of the pandemic in Europe.

Ismaili said that since February Kosovo has conducted only 570 tests, of which 31 results in positive results, or 5.4 per cent of the test.

As Ismaili said, if the government took measures and conducted 10,000 tests, it would result in 540 infected. Secretary The PDK, Ismaili Bridge, has called for urgent measures to increase the number of tests, as the virus has already spread to 10 municipalities in the country.

Full statement by Ismaili Bridge:

Honored citizens, first of all, the Haliti Family's condolences from Dumnica of Podujevo who lost their boyfriend today and we lost a citizen in our fight against Coronovius.

The family demanded that the burial be only private from the family, which shows the effects of this situation, that we will not be able, as worldwide, to separate from the victims on the basis of farewell customs.

Comfort one more time, and we hope that it will be the last death of Coronovius River 19th. Let's not forget that we should thank all the fairies by starting with doctors and nurses and all those who today are willing and working to help our patients.

The situation with Coronovius in Kosovo has changed much from week to week.

Losing the opportunity to preserve our borders with more frequent tests and isolation of patients who have come from different states, today we have a situation that shows that Kosovo is not being infected by a patient but by many.

The best illustration of this is that today we have patients in many municipalities who have no relationship or contact with each other.

So everyone has entered Kosovo untested and without instructions to be identified for 14 days. As such, with their appearances in municipalities or even farther away than their municipalities have increased the possibility of being the virus distributors everywhere.

Negligence to treat those who come from endangered states as potential infected has major consequences for public health in Kosovo, for the economy, education and all other areas.

In this situation where we have distribution in different municipalities, then there are two kinds of measures that are necessary and which are directly related to each other.

1. Social and physical distance which started in Kosovo and

2. Tests as far as the distance is beginning to practice, appeal to everyone to take seriously not to leave their homes or houses.

Being away from infected people, you save yourself, your family, but you can't even prevent the virus from spreading.

Standing in and home as hard as it is, is a pillar of our fight against the spread of the virus. S

The other end of combating the virus and which is in greater order is testing. Of all the public health experts today, from major crisis managers like Ebola, from O BSH, but also the states that have managed to stop the distribution and death of patients has been the strongest weapon.

The isolation we're doing as citizens and closing businesses is not enough without mass testing.

These recommendations are coming from O BSH, but also the figures emerging from countries that have big problems like Italy, which is currently the global area of Coronovius COVIDD19.

At the moment we've only done 570 tests and this is a failure that could cost us a fortune.

The lack of mass testing will enable the virus to spread and have a health system drowning.

Lack of testing has caused Italy to experience an unimaginable crisis with high daily deaths. But not all countries in Italy have done so.

We have a case of a towno who tested 3,000 of its inhabitants and in 14 days wiped out the virus. So the test made the difference between the distribution and extinction of the virus.

With 570 tests from February when testing started in Kosovo, today we are on average 10 tests a day.

This is very little and poses a failure in the actions needed to wipe out Coronovius in Kosovo.

From our tests of 570 tests, 5.4% positive has emerged. If we zoom in on this measure of testing with a constant 5.4 then in 10,000 tests we would have 540 infected, not 31.

This has been Italy's scenario at the outset: poor tests, believing the isolation measures will be sufficient.

It is alarming to think that only the mass of social distance can stop the spread of the virus.
