Its “situation is stable and it is hospitalised at the Infectious Clinic in Skopje”, the minister has said.

Filpique has also said that all doctors and patients who have had contact with her are being identified and interviewed.

The “will probably close down the entire department and patients will be sent home”, he said.

According to the minister, the only positive thing is that the principal has not had visiting day and has not been in contact with many patients.

Filipce has once again appealed to respect the measures taken and people to become aware.

“We are revolted over disrespecting measures for protection from the virus in question”, Minister Filipce said.

He said we can't close the safes, no country in the world has done it, but we have to be particularly aware of people coming from the affected countries, especially Italy, to be self-aware at home for at least a few days.
