The leader of the Party of Democratic Action, Sulejman Ugljanin, spoke at a press conference about the coronavirus epidemic and the fight against the virus, and paid special attention to the use of masks. Ugljanin presented a conspiracy theory that masks are not protective, but that with their appearance, the virus spread, so it's possible that someone is putting the virus or some chemical weapon into one in each hundred masks?!

"They stuck masks on people's faces, without telling anyone which masks are of good quality, which are useful and which are harmful, for how long they can be used, how far away or close to the mouth. The virus is not a fly so that it can be stopped with a mask. The virus is part of the air, it is invisible," Ugljanin started off.

He added that the virus came from China and that there had not been "a high degree (of it)" in our country.

"Only when the masks started to be used did the number of deaths increase. And why? Maybe someone put a little virus or some chemical weapon into one in each hundred of these masks and created a problem for us here," said Ugljanin.

Ugljanin said that he did not trust either the government or the crisis HQ, because "they have no proof of what they have said."

(A Facebook video post by Ugljanin's party on Saturday is captioned, "HERE IS WHY THE PEOPLE OF SANDZAK ASK FOR DISMISSALS

Explanation, why the people of Sandzak are asking for the director of the General Hospital and the public health institute, as well as the 'coordinator' of the General Hospital, which is a made up title the regime invented to cover up its earlier crimes, to be sacked.

WE DON'T TRUST THEM"

The post also contains hashtags, "sandzak our home, sandzak, autonomy, covid19")

"We are not slaves. We are educated people who have general and medical knowledge. I have at least 20 questions related to the mask to put it on my mouth. I don't want anything on my lips that could endanger my life and reduce lung ventilation. Who can order me to put on a mask," Ugljanin asked angrily.

He then added that it would not be a problem to wear masks on people's feet.

"If it was put on the foot, on the shoe, on the knee, there would be no problem. But on the mouth, hey folks, we are putting a mask on the mouth. They've made fools out of people," concluded Ugljanin.
