Sunday testing for 18 evacuated passengers from Italy

SARAJevo, (Patria) - Aida Pilav, President of the KS Crisis Staff, said that a total of 129 tests have been performed in Sarajevo, and 22 tests were performed yesterday, five of which were positive.  

"1,699 citizens are in self-isolation, and 524 of them are leaving the self-isolation period. I call on citizens to respect the self-isolation measures, because respecting the measures is a legal and criminal responsibility," said Pilav.

She confirmed that the sixth cluster has been recorded in Sarajevo.

"It was a meeting that was held with a larger number of participants in mid-March, despite all our recommendations, we are in a situation where we are now catching those cases," she said.

When reporting to health institutions, try to provide correct and accurate information because we are still connecting and making epidemiological links as to whether you have been in a risk area or had contact.

"All identified clusters so far are linked to endangered countries Germany, Spain, France," explained Pilav.

Speaking about the 18 evacuated BiH citizens from Italy, Pilav said that a public health measure of relocation from the Airport to the quarantine in the Students' Dormitory Bjelave has been carried out.

"A health check was performed, none of them are febrile symptomatically, all are in good health, they were only tired from waiting for the flight. We gave them today to rest, and testing will be done tomorrow because they are coming from a risk country. They are under continuous supervision of the epidemiological service," concluded Pilav.
