Asked about the issue of visits to patients injured in the Kocani fire, Health Insurance Fund Director Klekovski stated on Tuesday that he and the others had worn visitor, that is, protective coats.

However, according to official photos published by the Government’s press-service, everyone, including Klekovski, wore suits, while face masks were the only form of protection.

When Klekovski was shown the photos showing he hadn’t worn a protective coat, he didn’t give an appropriate answer. According to the Health Insurance Fund Director, there will be no more visits to patients.
