Public Health Institute recommends urgent additional epidemiological measures in Vrela Ribnička settlement
Published on: Apr 5, 2020 • 12:27 AM Author: PR Service
The National Coordination Body for Communicable Diseases decided today at an emergency consultation session, in accordance with the recommendations of the Public Health Institute, that the competent institutions take urgent additional epidemiological measures in the Vrela Ribnička settlement, which includes 23 buildings.
The decision on self-isolation of residents in residential buildings was made after one resident of that settlement was referred to the Clinical Centre of Montenegro for hospital treatment last night. Numerous direct and indirect contacts were previously made in this densely populated community.
Alongside the introduction of additional epidemiological measures, an urgent procurement of food and personal hygiene products will be initiated for the citizens of this settlement.
The positive effect of these measures in Tuzi and in the village Biokovac in Bijelo Polje was taken into account in making today's decision.
The measures adopted have yielded results thanks to the support and understanding of the local population and the support of local self-governments. The National Coordination Body believes that with such an attitude of the residents of Vrela Ribnička and the strong support of the Capital City, this measure will have its full effect.
All measures have been taken to protect the health and lives of citizens in these local communities and beyond, and the effects so far confirm their full justification.
The National Coordination Body continuously monitors and analyzes the overall situation regarding the epidemic of the novel coronavirus (COVID 19).
