Speaking for TV Prva she pointed out that according to some estimates, Covid-19 will be one of the types of flu next year, assessing that we are now in the calm phase of the epidemic.

She added that the number of tested citizens in Serbia is higher than those in the surrounding countries, pointing out that such a number goes in favor of epidemiological statistics in our country.

"I think that the state health system has passed the test. When it comes to oncology patients, this Ministry of Health has done a lot to equip us, not only with facilities but also with devices," stated Grujicic.

Asked whether professionals have now given priority to the economy, given that "borders are opening too early and we may have imported cases of coronavirus" - Grujicic said that it is possible that professionals wanted to look at the economic aspect at this time, but noted that we are safe.

Dr. Grujicic claims that we have acquired collective immunity.
