The Prime Minister of Serbia, Ana Brnabic, said today that Serbia is currently investing one billion euros in health infrastructure alone.
On the occasion of the opening of the new Covid hospital in Batajnica, Brnabic said that it literally saved people’s lives, and added that during the pandemic, only new hospitals were built in China and Russia to receive positive patients.
Brnabic said for TV Happy that the fact that two new hospitals were built in four months is a great pride, but also the success of the whole of Serbia and an indicator of how much Serbia can do.
“It is unbelievable that we will come out of the fight against the corona stronger than before. In economic terms, our economy will end 2020 with the best results in the whole of Europe,” Brnabic pointed out and reminded that “before 2012, all Western Balkan countries they had higher salaries and higher pensions than us.”
She added that Serbia will come out of the current health crisis with a large number of new laboratories with the most modern equipment.
Speaking about vaccines, she stated that everything will be done to be as soon as possible and that there is a wide range, and that vaccines will be free.
She also said that vaccines will not be mandatory, but that people will be appealed to receive it.
Brnabic assessed as “inadmissible” that someone says that there is no freedom of the media in Serbia or that someone is putting pressure on the judiciary.
“If it can do all this, don’t just read in the progress reports (in EU accession) that there is no media freedom and pressure,” Brnabic said, adding that criticism of the state’s response to the health crisis was “populist and political assessments,” Dnevnik reports.
