Yesterday afternoon and overnight through the Institute of Public Health 71 people were tested for the coronavirus. Two of them tested positive for the virus, one from Skopje – a contact of an already confirmed and diagnosed patient from Skopje and one from Ohrid – who recently traveled from Brescia, Italy who was in contact with confirmed and infected coronavirus patients in Italy. Most of the tests done through IPH are within the early screening, with people with broader indications, the Ministry of Health said.

Another 17 patients tested positive at the Zan Mitrev Clinic, which will be confirmed later in the day.
