THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS IN THE PCINJ DISTRICT IS GROWING: 32 NEW CASES IN VRANJE

29. June 2020.

Vranje, Bujanovac, Presevo - The number of new patients in relation to those tested in the Pcinj district has achieved infamous records. The Institute of Public Health sampled 84 swabs of people with suspected coronavirus over the past few days. The results are quite worrying, considering that out of that number, the virus was confirmed in another 36 people in the Pcinj district.

Most of the patients are from Vranje - as many as thirty-two.  One person is positive from each of four more municipalities of the Pcinj district, which include Bujanovac, Presevo, Vladicin Han and Surdulica.

According to the latest data, 110 patients were hospitalized in two COVID hospitals in Vranje.

In the Vranje COVID outpatient clinic, the number of daily examinations exceeds 150, which is why the Special Hospital for Lung Diseases in Surdulica was turned into a COVID outpatient clinic.

On Friday, the Crisis Staff from Vranje sent a request for the introduction of an emergency situation and for the implementation of measures, such as those in Novi Pazar. It is expected that new prevention measures will come into force today, in the morning hours, which will primarily be aimed at preventing all types of gatherings.
