FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, June 4 (FENA) - A team of the World Health Organization (WHO) led by Patricia Kormoss, a consultant for preparedness and operational planning, talked today with Health Minister of the Zenica-Doboj Canton (ZDC) Adnan Jupić and members of the Crisis Staff of the ZDC Ministry of Health about measures taken against the coronavirus pandemic.

“WHO representatives praised our work, because with the cooperation of all structures, primarily health, we achieved that all patients, a total of 322, were adequately cared for and that we had no life-threatening or deaths,” said Minister Adnan Jupić.

It was concluded that it is necessary to identify possible omissions in order for the health system in this canton to be even more ready to respond to the challenges of the pandemic in the future.

“We have solutions to small problems that have arisen and we suggest to these institutions how they should improve their work further. I hope that we will not have bigger problems with a possible second wave of coronavirus pandemic or some other infection,” said Jupić.

Members of the ZDC Crisis Staff asked WHO representatives, in addition to regular advisory assistance, to provide risk assessment training for heads of organizational units within health care institutions in order to empower the health care system to solve problems in these institutions as efficiently as possible.

Also, WHO representatives were asked to involve this organization in drafting amendments to the current Law on Protection of the Population from Infectious Diseases of the FBiH, which showed numerous shortcomings during coronavirus pandemic, the ZDC Press Service stated.
