Early detection, screening according to epidemiological indications, as we have already begun to do in Debar, now in the suburbs of Struga, these days a plan is being drafted for some settlements and regions in Skopje and other cities, according to epidemiologists’ data. It is very much it is important to find out as soon as possible so as not to burden the health system and further cause problems and complications in treatment and the inability to deal with this problem, said Filipce.
