Minister Taravari Discusses Kocani Fire-Related Topics in Interview with Sitel

In an interview with Sitel on Wednesday, Health Minister Arben Taravari stated that he expected 40-50 patients injured in the Kocani fire that were receiving treatment abroad to need longer rehabilitation. As he pointed out, there are countries that are ready to admit for rehabilitation patients that are more severe cases.

“At least so far, in the first 10 days, the results have been good. To this day, there have been no new deaths, though there are for critical patients. Now, we’re in the second stage, the one of complications and rehabilitations”, he added.

Also on Wednesday, Foreign Minister Timco Mucunski said that though the Government supported donations, the state was covering financial costs from a logistical and medical standpoint.
