CRISIS STAFF SESSION NEXT WEEK: The main topic is the introduction of kovid passes in other facilities

PRIME MINISTER Ana Brnabić stated today that a session of the Crisis Shab will be held next week, at which, among other things, the possible introduction of kovid passes in other facilities will be discussed.

Brnabic said that this option is always on the table, but that it was primary to introduce covid passes in such a way as to reduce any possibility of abuse.

– We learned from other countries and EU members, we see how something has an effect and is not a marketing measure that everyone will welcome, and in practice it does not mean much – said Brnabić at the panel “Youth Immunization”, which was held at the Faculty organizational sciences.

The Prime Minister said that the medical part of the Crisis Staff continues to advocate that covid passes be introduced 24 hours a day in all closed spaces, except in stores, but that it is important how to control the observance of that measure.

– It is much more important for people to see that control is carried out where passes have been introduced than to introduce them everywhere, without any control. This is extremely difficult to implement. We wanted to give a clear message that it will expand the scope of covid passes, but also so that it can be implemented and those who violate that measure can be sanctioned – said Brmabić.

– That is the reason why we are going for a gradual introduction, but it is always on the table. The most important thing is to protect lives and health and the health system, but also the economy, because this pandemic is extremely expensive – Brnabić emphasized.

She pointed out that it is important to take into account the mental health of the nation, especially young people, to whom, as she pointed out, the coronary virus pandemic has taken a lot.

She assessed that the epidemic situation in Serbia is getting better every day, but that it does not mean that it will remain so, especially if, as she pointed out, the coverage of vaccination does not increase.
