Serbia’s public health institute, “Dr Milan Jovanović Batut,” has issued a warning regarding an impending heatwave expected to impact the country in the coming days. Temperatures are forecast to rise significantly, posing potential health risks to the population. Authorities are advising citizens to take precautions against heatstroke and dehydration, particularly vulnerable groups like the elderly and those with chronic illnesses. Reports indicate crowded conditions at popular recreational areas like Ada Ciganlija, with many visitors lacking adequate sun protection. The institute recommends avoiding prolonged sun exposure during peak hours, staying hydrated, and wearing appropriate clothing. Public health officials are monitoring the situation closely and preparing for a potential increase in heat-related illnesses. Further updates and guidance will be provided as the heatwave progresses.
