Acting Health Minister Arben Vitita is in ongoing talks with Pristina Mayor Shpend Ahmeti, and the following days are expected to ease the measures and Pristina be removed from quarantine. All these decisions will be made in co-operation with IKSHP
So announced Health Ministry spokesman Faik Hoti, via a call to Kosova Preress. He stressed how much a decision should be made will become known to the media and that citizens will be notified on time.
On the other hand, security affairs connoisseur Drizan Shala says Pristina's departure from quarantine is the right decision, until he stressed that the introduction of the capital into quarantine has been the wrong step.
“As far as the question of whether Pristina's quarantine should continue after May 4th, I think the relevant ministry has missed that at the beginning of the entire Pristina entry into quarantine because even the law on infectious diseases stipulates that a whole municipality cannot be quarantined but must be quarantined only one neighbourhood or one that has been infected or infected by any virus, or infectious disease.... Determining the set time for movement and raising the influx of citizens to certain locations, and this in doubt suggests that the model is setting for people to become infected”, Shala says.
For the economic downturn and impact of COVID-19 in many sectors, it says these result from not declaring the state of emergency at the start of spreading pandemic.
The “Since the start before the government's quarantine began has had to be declared exceptionally, for a specific time interval of the constitution, at a 30-day interval and after that quarantine to continue at border points and any citizen entering Kosovo quarantined for 14 days, and so we had with a free movement within Kosovo, and we would not have with them the economic aspect that Kosovo is currently facing, said Shala.
Security expert says that during this time of Pristina quarantine, Kosovo Police have carried out all necessary obligations.
