Serbia is still in control of the new coronavirus epidemic, and to prove this is the fact that in the last few days the number of new cases has been constant - rangig from 200 to 250.
"We are in a phase where we can still control the situation. The problem arises when you have exponential growth of the sick, if we had 500 or 1,000 new cases that would set off serious alarms. As long as we keep a steady rate of new cases, we are in a situation where we can control the epidemic," Zoran Gojkovic, the provincial secretary for health, said earlier today.
