New Measures in Split-Dalmatia County on Table as Covid Cases Rise

The Head of the Split-Dalmatia County Civil Protection Headquarters, Damir Gabrić, told Novi dan on N1 television that we cannot talk about improving the situation in that County just yet. 

“We have 192 hospitalized in the County, 40 people on ventilators and unfortunately three more who died. Of the 448 samples tested, more than 230 are newly tested. There is always some 50 percent or more infected. We have entered the new year with big numbers,” said Gabrić.

He appealed once again to everyone to get vaccinated.

“In this way, we save our hospital system and not only those who suffer from Covid, but also from other diseases,” he added.

“I am sorry that a large part of my fellow citizens did not use it. We are already reaping those fruits, and I am afraid that after the outbreak, it will be seen in some six or seven days at Split KBC,” said Gabrić.

He said he would probably introduce some new measures, but did not want to take them out yet.

“We will probably have them today or on Tuesday, to slow down the pandemic, because we will certainly not help stop it. Everything is on the table, from the work of catering facilities to socializing … I think we should start from that. But I say, the only real measure is – get vaccinated,” he concluded and added that he is considering switching to online classes.
