We will all remember this July 10 as the saddest day in Serbia, considering that this is the highest death toll in a single day since the beginning of the epidemic.

During the last 24 hours, 8,646 more people have been tested.

There are currently 138 patients on the ventilators.

Today is the worst day since the beginning of the coronavirus epidemic in our country.

According to available data that has been arriving during the day, 10 people died from Covid in the General Hospital in Novi Pazar. In Vojvodina, 4 patients died, while two people in Kraljevo and one in Nis lost their battle with the virus. It is suspected that two patients in Cacak also died from coronavirus, but test results for them are still pending.

Coronavirus claimed its first victim in Serbia on March 20.

Even at the peak of the epidemic in March and April, the single-day death toll was never this high. The previous highest number of deaths was on April 14.

That had been a day we all dreaded, and one even worse than that has happened to us now.
