Not one test came back negative and four staff did not show up for testing at KBC Zagreb, Croatia’s biggest hospital, where a protest was held this morning against mandatory certificates and testing.
As of today, every employee in the health and social care sectors, as well as visitors, must have a COVID certificate. Medical workers without it must be tested twice a week.
The chambers of physicians and nurses supported the mandatory certificates, saying they will contribute to patient’s safety, while condemning the protests held outside some hospitals, saying they disrupted the peace patients need for their treatment.
