Ministar zdravstva Sjeverne Makedonije Venko Filipče predao je u petak ostavku nakon eksplozije i požara u privremenoj bolnici za oboljele od covida-19 u kojima je poginulo 14 ljudi u toj malenoj balkanskoj zemlji teško stradaloj od koronavirusa.

“Tragedija u Tetovu jako me pogodila (…) kao liječnik i kao ministar predao sam ostavku premijeru Zoranu Zaevu iz moralnih razloga”, rekao je Venko Filipče na tiskovnoj konferenciji u Skoplju. Premijer može ne prihvatiti ostavku.

Prije toga ostavku su podnijeli zamjenik ministra zdravstva Ilir Hasani, ravnatelj Kliničke bolnice u Tetovu Florin Besimi i financijski direktor Artan Etemi.

Poginulo 12 pacijenata i dvoje posjetitelja

Vlasti u Skoplju su objavile da je obdukcija 14 žrtava, 8 žena i 6 muškaraca, završena i da su svi identificirani. Među njima je dvanaest pacijenata i dvije osobe koje su bile u posjetu. Žrtve su bile u dobi od 29 do 79 godina.

Istraga o uzrocima nesreće se nastavlja. Požar je buknuo nakon još nerazjašnjene eksplozije u montažnoj bolnici nedavno otvorenoj u sklopu Kliničke bolnice u Tetovu koji ima 52.000 stanovnika, većinom pripadnika albanske manjine.

U zemlji s dva milijuna stanovnika, gdje je prosječna plaća 460 eura, već neko vrijeme raste broj zaraženih zbog širenja delta varijante virusa. Više od 180.000 ljudi je dosad zaraženo a više od 6.200 je umrlo.
