IK Saturday: Omitron risks spread even in Kosovo, respect measures, vaccinate

The IKSHP say the pandemic situation in the country remains stable, however, mention the fact that the situation has deteriorated in the world and the region in recent weeks and that anti-David measures should be respected and vaccinated.

Notification:

IK The KPS is continuing to follow the epidemiological situation in the country, the region and the world.

The epidemiology situation in Kosovo is currently stable, but in the region, Europe and the world has been burdened in recent weeks with showing the new version of the SARS virus The CoV-2 Omitron (B.1.1.529), which has already been reported in many countries of the world and risks spreading this version to the Republic of Kosovo.

We're going on and on with tracking all the cases, community case contacts and laboratory diagnosis.

The epidemiological situation could deteriorate in the event of new cases, and this could present new overloads for the health system and health professionals.

So, I The KSHPK appeals to all citizens, for respecting all measures under the decisions of the Government of the Republic of Kosovo.

Because of the high risk of spreading COVID-19, we call in particular for caution and non-gathering. While, we recommend responsible institutions to carefully monitor and take all necessary actions to implement measures to prevent and combat pandemic.

Further care is essential for all to strictly respect physical distance, use masks, become disinfectant and ventilation of spaces, unable and avoid further eventual spread of COVID-19 infection.

Since vaccination is the best and safest way to prevent COVID-19, especially serious forms of disease and death, we continue to strongly appeal for the most extensive, wideer, and fastest population inoculation. From today, the Ministry of Health has started vaccinating with the hypforcing dosage and the third dose that all citizens over the age of 18.

Strengthening doses are given to people who took two doses of the vaccine against COVID-19, but in time their immunity comes down. The reinforcement dose is given six months after taking the second dose.

The third dose is given to people who have taken two doses of vaccine against COVID-19, but on which inadequate immunity has not developed as a result of their poor immunity or associated diseases with the recommendation of the ordinative doctor. The third dose is given no less than 8 weeks and is not given six months from taking the second dose.

By vaccinating yourself, you protect yourself, protect people around you, primarily your family.

Vaccination remains the strongest weapon to prevent hospitalisation.

All indiscriminately and necessarily we should continue to implement precautions against COVID-19 and health professionals' recommendations!

Hence, it is consistently applied to each person, and we keep calling on:

Cover your mouth and nose with a mask!

Maintain hygiene!

Respect distance!

VAKSINOHOW!
