At a today’s online meeting of the city hall’s services, the Moldovan capital’s mayor, Ion Ceban, said that it was important for the city’s residents to be able to communicate with specialists to receive answers to questions, in the situation when the family physicians work in alert regime on this period and do not manage to answer by phone.    

„It is important that family physicians inform patients with light coronavirus forms, who are treated at home, on how they should access the municipal monitoring system (Chisinau COVID-19 Register – JIRA Platform), in order to communicate through this application about the symptoms they have every day. The information is systematized and if changes appear in the health condition, the family physician returns to the patient with a call,’’ Ceban said.
