Meta said only four patients, who haven’t been vaccinated, are currently being treated at the Covid 1 hospital.

According to her, the COVID-19 patients are experiencing moderate symptoms, while 50% of them are seriously ill and are undergoing oxygen therapy.

“Two of the patients are actually being treated under high oxygen therapy,” Meta told reporters.

The hospitalized patients, three from Elbasan and one from Tirana, are 61, 65, 69 and 71 years old respectively. Doctors treating them affirmed that they are seriously ill.

The four hospitalized COVID-19 patients were scheduled to receive the vaccine since April.
