The first death in the Serbian Government of a coronavirus: State Secretary deceased

A senior official in Serbia’s government died from the coronavirus on Wednesday, a health official said, the second death of a public figure from the disease in the Balkan country.

Branislav Blazic, 63, a state secretary with the Ministry for Environmental Protection, died only days after being hospitalized with symptoms of the coronavirus infection, said Daria Kisic Tepavcevic, the deputy director of the Institute for Public Health.

“Sadly it is true, he (Blazic) died,” Kisic told a news conference in Belgrade.

Serbia has so far reported 1,060 confirmed cases of coronavirus and 28 deaths, in a total population of 7 million. Milutin Knezevic, a bishop in the Serbian Orthodox Church, succumbed to the disease on Monday.
