The USKKUK director tells of the overburdened situation with Avis in Kosovo: I've called late-hour meetings”

SHSKUK Director Valbon Krasniqi said Delta has made the infections grow, as this variant spreads more easily.

“COVID-19 is the disease that causes the Delta version and other variants that have circulated so far. The option Delta seems to have increased the power of widespreadness and severe forms of illness that are causing it. A person infected with previous variants could infect two to three other people, while for the person infected with Delta, it could infect six to eight persons”, Krasniqi said.

Krasniqi made it known that even people who are vaccinated may be the virus's hub.

The “does not create complete immunity, without even taking the second dose of the vaccine, but even the vaccinated persons may be distributors of the virus”, he added.

Krasniqi confirmed that the situation at KSF is heavily burdened with large numbers of hospitalised cases, suggesting that 1250 patients are receiving treatment in seven general hospitals and in eight entities we have already made at KKUK.

After that situation, Krasniqi announced that he held a committee meeting last night, including Health Minister Arben Vitita.

I've called a meeting in the late hours of the night where the Minister of Health, Arben Vitita, joined us and followed the situation from hour to hour to see how it's going. We have cut off the selective program of surgical interventions, those of the emergency nature, and we will be forced to suspend unfortunately even professional services in order to create room for patients who will lie in hospitals”, the SHSKUK Director in Klan added.

On the other hand, he announced that even the arrival of other vaccines were warned and called on citizens to be patient and considerate as they are able to appoint vaccine terms, appoint and vaccinate.
