"Today we will have over 2,000 newly infected people. The plea is once again wear masks and follow all recommendations," she told Prva TV.

"No doubt, the epidemiological situation will worsen. Every day is important to us until we finish two new Covid hospitals. Then it will be easier for our healthcare system, and that will be in December," she said.

She said that there are free beds in hospitals, and that 2,000 patients are currently hospitalized because of coronavirus.

"It's not in anyone's interest to introduce new measures. I talk about it with the president of Serbia at least six times a day. Although the data seems terrible, it is still less than in the region," said Brnabic.

She called on and appealed to citizens to wear masks and respect measures.
