“The closure of the wards in the regional hospitals will return the hospitals to a normal situation and today there are no patients with COVID-19 hospitalized at the Regional Hospital of Elbasan/ The new cases that will be triaged in the hospital of Elbasan will be sent to the COVID 1 hospital in Tirana. The infectious disease wards at the Durrës Regional Hospital and at the Shkodra Regional Hospital are in the closure process. These were the three wards at the three regional hospitals that have responded to the second scenario,” Minister Manastirliu said.

“Today the epidemiological situation is under control. The wards in regional hospitals are being closed, and we are evaluating the possibility to concentrate the COVID-19 cases in a single hospital, given that there are only a few numbers,” Minister Manastirliu said.

“The Technical Committee of Experts is dynamically assessing the pandemic situation. We believe that within the next two days the Technical Committee of Experts will hold a meeting to review the measures against COVID-19. A revaluation in terms of relief is being considered, but it will always be a controlled, gradual reopening,” Minister Manastirliu said.//a.i/
