After the end-of-year holidays, there has been a significant increase in those infected with the Omicron and Delta mutations of the coronovirus.
The emergency room of Durrës hospital these days has faced a high influx of citizens, up to 400 visits in 24 hours. Even in the pediatric emergency the number of visits is 2-3-fold. Most present with flu-like symptoms, characterized by high fever and chills.
Gjergj Qerimi, head of Durrës Hospital Emergency: “We have an increase in patients diagnosed with Covid. This is attributed to the patients’ violation of the rules of distancing, anti-covid rules and the arrival of immigrants. “
The most severe cases have appeared in the elderly, but they have not been absent even in the young ages.
Neighboring countries are also facing an alarming situation from where tens of thousands of emigrants and tourists entered Albania for the holidays.
According to doctors, as a result of group celebrations, the increase of interpersonal contacts for the holidays and the violation of the anti-covid protocol, is expected to bring an increase in the number of infected people during the month of January.
“Citizens should not neglect if they are strict with the rules of distancing, wearing a mask and personal hygiene. This will apply not only to Covid, but also to the flu syndrome. ”
