Gjilan recently from the ranking of municipalities according to areas related to COVID is in the yellow zone (in the yellow area are part of the medium-risk municipalities).

Ismajli has said that this town has an economy damaged by pandemics and that citizens have lost patience in terms of anticoncivic measures when it is known how the measures by politicians themselves were violated at the time of the election campaign.

The incumbent's “government needs to become more serious and go further out of the sovereign's final verdict. The Ministry of Health, it should not further prevent gastronomics, businesses and citizens, especially after the devastating socio-economic situation from pandemic. Our politicians should not be impressed with these categories, and especially on gastronomics, because the pressure of businesses and citizens has been accumulated after gatherings called by political groups themselves in the campaign”, Deputy Chairman Ishmael said.

He said patience has come to an end, and that gastronomers, citizens and businesses no longer wait. Otherwise, the Committee for Management and Prevention of Proliferation of COVID-19, under the leadership of Deputy Chairman Ismajli, has held the meeting to assess the situation for the past two days.

We have a significant increase in new positive cases and this proves that the virus is among us. So, I appeal to citizens and businesses that provide services to continue respecting measures, setting the mask, and keeping the distance”, Ishmael said.
