Rexhepi expressed satisfaction with members of the Roma and Egyptian community in the municipality of Prizren and Gjakova, who have responded to the call for inoculation, while expressing concern for the Bosniak community living in deeper areas.
We have information that in Prizren municipality, the Roma community, it is largely vaccinated. Also, we have information from Gjakova's chairman that the Egyptian community is vaccinated with a good percentage, but we have problems in the Prizren municipality, where the Bosniak community in rural areas, especially in rural villages, is not sufficiently vaccinated, and statistics show that almost 30 per cent of our community there is vaccinated, which all of us have to act to protect the lives of every citizen”, she said.
