“No suspected or confirmed case of the new Covid omicron variant has been recorded in Albania,” the Deputy Health Minister said told reporters.

Tomini explained that the Public Health Institute has not detected any omicron case based on the PCR testing results of the suspected samples.

She also said that the pandemic situation has stabilized over the past four weeks in Albania.

“For more than four weeks, the situation seems stable, despite the daily fluctuations in number of the cases testing positive for Covid,” Deputy Health Minister noted, adding that the situation remains totally under control.

Experts recommend full two-dose vaccination, as well as increasing vaccine coverage of the population as a way for the situation to further stabilize.
