”The government’s announcement that industrial gas will be legalized as a medicine is inhumane and unscrupulously endangering the health of its own people for the sake of unhealthy and profitable interests, ” said the president of the Serbian Democratic Party (SDS), Mirko Sarovic, as that party announced.
”It is unbelievable that, while thinking that the people “swallowed” their story about the “purity” of industrial gas, the government continued to look for ways to continue importing cheaper gas and thus ensure the continuation of illegal actions, ” Sarovic explained.
Further, he pointed out that the claims of the Prime Minister of the Republika Srpska (RS), Radovan Viskovic, that industrial gas is the same as medical gas, are unacceptable.
He raised the question of why industrial technical oxygen is not as a medicine on the hospital list of medicines of the RS Health Insurance Fund if it is a medicine.
He also asks – how is it that nowhere in the world is industrial gas the same as medical gas except in RS?
”Will we really agree to be the most unreasonable (not to use a harsher word) people on the planet… ” he told.
Sarovic stressed that even the “Linde Gas” gas industry in Becej, in which a recent analysis of gas used in hospitals was ordered and which is accredited exclusively for the analysis of industrial gas, states on its website the difference between industrial and medical gas.
”Also, the findings of this disputed sampling show that they do not list the manufacturer of the sample that was brought for analysis or other necessary details that are precisely presentedduring standard sampling by authorized samplers. The disputed finding even states that the sampling was done according to the Linda method and that it is valid only for that sample, ” Sarovicstated.
