Doctors and nurses from the Alexandrovska Hospital protest against lifting of the extraordinary epidemic situation. According to them, the cancellation of the epidemic situation was a hasty decision, as there are patients who need to be cared for and people who should not remove their masks indoors. Doctors also expressed concern that in this way the additional remuneration for work on the front line against Covid-19 would be eliminated.

Doctors remain ready for a strike in case planned healthcare reforms did not satisfy them.
