SARAJEVO, April 22 (FENA) - EUFOR extends its preventative testing series for COVID-19 conducted by medical teams from Austria at EUFOR facilities in locations including Banja Luka, Tuzla and Novo Sarajevo.
This represents the next logical step in EUFOR’s testing series, to extend EUFOR’s duty of care to its deployed personnel and the communities they serve. Previous testing had focused on the main body of EUFOR personnel at Camp Butmir, Sarajevo, announced EUFOR.
Tests will be conducted on April 22 and 23.
The teams will travel by road and aircraft in order to reach the deployed locations.Local residents may see personnel wearing full body personal protective equipment; this is nothing to be afraid of.
It is standard protocol for medical professionals to wear this type of equipment when performing this type of procedure. There is no risk to local communities in performing these tests, EUFOR stated.
