Radovan Karadzic, Sarajevo is not your city, and you have no right to say that it is, just as you do not have the right to say in public, even if it’s in court, that someone has dug up bones around Bosnia and brought them to Srebrenica to make a fake graveyard. This is insulting.
Serbia Opens Swine Flu Vaccine Plant
Belgrade | 21 December 2009 | Bojana Barlovac
The state has invested 2.7 million euros and Torlak 305,000 euros in building the plant. According to Dakic, Torlak will have to invest another 300,000 euros for the purchase of small equipment and materials.
Serbia has registered 520 swine flu cases so far and has experienced 41 fatalities from the virus. The country's Health Minister Tomica Milosavljevic declared a swine flu epidemic on November 11, meaning that nationwide emergency vaccination could then be carried out.
Vaccination in Serbia kicked off on December 17 with the Health Minister being the first to receive a jab in an effort to allay fears about the vaccine’s safety.
The first 140,000 doses of the shots have been delivered to health centres throughout the country for the inoculation of high-risk groups such as people with chronic diseases, pregnant women, children and public sector employees.
The minister said more than 12,000 people were inoculated in the first four days of vaccination. “Very soon a vaccine will be available to all citizens, not only to priority groups,” Milosavljevic added. For more info, see Balkan Insight's Swine Flu Catches Up With Balkans
