Dr Udovicic: "We will have a large number of infected people"; He proposes shortening one measure
"Two thirds of the hospital is full. A huge number of newly infected, what worries us is the huge number of health workers who are infected... We will have a large number of newly infected, it will affect health, but also other large systems with workers," said Dr Udovicic for TV Prva.
"I suggest that the recommendations be adopted to isolate asymptomatic and that the mild clinical picture be shortened to seven days, otherwise we will have problems with staffing," he explained. Dr Udovicic referred to the situation in the European Union, i.e. in Europe, and compared the epidemiological picture there with that in Serbia.
"There is not much pressure in the EU and the USA on hospitals, but we must know that we cannot be guided by that, because the level of vaccination in Serbia is significantly lower and there were large gatherings during the holidays... Omicron strain will infect vaccinated and unvaccinated. Unvaccinated people have a much better chance of ending up in the hospital," doctor explained, emphasizing that the vaccine is effective and that "we cannot choose."
