Epidemiologist Predrag Kon has commented on the decision to, starting today, allow citizens of Serbia, but also foreigners to enter the country without presenting a negative coronavirus test or a special permit.

"The end of testing will not have a lesser effect on preventive work. Epidemiologists will have more work to do, because health monitoring decisions will be issued. All our people who enter the country will have to report to institutes of public health and their health condition will be monitored, and that will be a huge job," Kon told the daily Kurir.

He added that it would be easier to do everything with tests and explains why they had to cancel them.

"It is easier to solve it with one test, but the reason for canceling the tests is that they cannot be obtained in some countries. Preventive work will continue and will probably also have to be abolished later, when there is greater volume of travel," concluded Kon.
