According to Zorica Zafirovska of the Center for Public Health in Tetovë, reports indicate a declining trend in the number of individuals seeking medical attention due to contaminated water sources within Gostivar. While the situation remains under active monitoring, initial data suggests an improvement in the immediate caseload compared to the previous period. Over the past 24 hours, a total of 111 patients required care at various departments within the region.
Specific departmental statistics were provided, noting that the Infectious Diseases Department in Gostivar treated 111 patients, while an additional 26 individuals presented for routine check-up visits. Furthermore, the Emergency Center in Gostivar reported seven new cases, and the Department of Pediatrics documented care for 65 pediatric patients over the same period. Zafirovska highlighted that the current figures represent a reduction in patient volume when contrasted with the preceding day.
Despite this observed decrease, gastroenteritis has been officially declared an epidemic within the territory of the Municipality of Gostivar. The epidemiological situation remains a primary concern for public health officials. Health authorities continue to track the development of the outbreak, emphasizing the need for vigilance regarding water safety protocols.
The data collected over the last 24 hours is instrumental in assessing the effectiveness of current mitigation efforts across Gostivar. The focus remains on monitoring the spread of waterborne illnesses and ensuring that local health services can manage the ongoing public health challenge.
