Health Minister Venko Filipce said that the linear progression of coronavirus cases in
Macedonia is a sign the strategy is working. Macedonia has had between 12 and 29
newly diagnosed cases each day over the past two weeks, and according to Filipce,
it’s good that the numbers are not getting progressively higher.
It’s still too soon to draw conclusions but the linear growth is encouraging. We have
more or less the same number of new patients each day. That was our goal from the
start, with this trend, our healthcare system can continue to service the citizens well.
The peak is yet to come though, so it’s necessary for everyone to be disciplined and
adhere to the measures and recommendations without exception, Filipce said.
