The number of affected with COVID-19 in Kosovo is increasing daily and more. The death toll is also high as a result of infection. Hospital capacity has already been limited. But despite this chairman of the Federation of International Health, Blerim Syla speaks out against total closure, though he says such actions would be appropriate in health.
Syla claims that clinics at the University Clinical Hospital Service in Kosovo have been preoccupied with patients, so it requires that the anti-sector measures - CO VID to be respected.
If we speak as health workers, we normally want to take measures because our capacities are full, the workers are exhausted there are no more physically and mentally we have been affected. But on the other hand, because the state is hard to control and the economic issue is very serious for all businesses, the decision really has to be a little cautious. I am a follower of her not to be closed, but to establish measures that should be respected”, he said.
Since both Tuesday and Kosovo have already started vaccination of medical and supportive staff, Syla says 24 thousand doses donated to Kosovo by COVAX are enough for doctors' vaccination, but not for the other category that is meant for vaccines and are persons over 80 and chronically ill.
These are enough for health workers, but don't forget that with this part, there are also over 80 years of age which are too many. So the doses are insufficient if we take, but we hope that “will come back in the future, he stressed.
FSSHK Chairman Blerim Syla sees the recording on the online platform of elderly people to be vaccinated.
It even requires greater sensationalisation by Kosovo institutions and better strategy for vaccine.
The “first was a hesitation, so we have a little problem because we don't have enough sensibilization that except for the protective measures vaccine is the main weapon in the fight against the virus, and people have hesitated at first. I'm a witness that on the first day they've barely wanted to come or come in with scepticism, but it needs to be done a lot more in the sensibility of the mass for taking vaccines and it needs a much more strategic plan. I'm not enjoying some things. It is not on the way now that elders over 80 years of age are now told to apply online are a few technical or technological issues they don't know about, and there's nobody to help, and it's going to be even easier that in all centres those people who are over 80 years old with identification to come and get shot and not become some dramas that are becoming “, Syla said.
In the last 24 hours in Kosovo positive with Covid-19, 975 people have resulted, while the battle with this virus has lost another 12 citizens. In total, the number of active cases with COVID-19 in Kosovo is 13,874, while the death toll has reached 1884.
