Dr. Orhan Karahodža, who is originally from Travnik and has been living and working in Switzerland and Germany for years, found himself at the center of a major scandal which was published by German television ZDF.

<h2> Private traders who want to make big money</h2>

"Golden fever during pandemic? Suspicious business with vaccines", is the title of the story of ZDF journalists, which is based on the trace of suspicious purchases of vaccines against coronavirus in Europe.
The full story, as stated, is based on a certain "Doctor O." (Orhan Karahodža), who, according to German journalists, mediates in procurement between states and producers. Vaccines are officially traded only between manufacturers and state governments, and there are private traders who want to make big money.
Karahodža is the owner of the company "Doctors365" from Switzerland, and in a statement for "Avaz" he claims that he is not doing anything illegal and that the whole business related to the mediation of vaccines is transparent.

- I am far from being a vaccine dealer. I'm not selling anything. I am a mediator between governments. I am a doctor who has contacts and I do not see anything controversial there. Governments contact me and I continue to mediate. It is true that I was also contacted by the RS Government for the procurement of AstraZeneca vaccines, 500,000 doses. People are looking for a solution. They are looking for vaccines, some of them are not asking for the price. But now it all stopped, because "AstraZeneca" blocked everything. There were also some informal contacts from the Government of FB&amp;H- says Karahodža.
He claims that he has not earned a single cent so far in the mediation business.
- I work on a commission and there is nothing disputable about that. Every offer I get is checked by my lawyers. Libya wants six million doses of "AstraZeneca", Dominican Republic one million doses. There is nothing "under the grain". I am asked by governments from all over the world to help them and I then I connect them directly with distributors. Depending on who wants what. Whoever sends the letter, I mediate. I don’t take vaccines and I don’t carry them to anyone. I mediate. I get a letter, which I then send to "AstraZeneca". I always claim that the best way is to go the direct route, but if you can't, contact me - says Karahodža.

<h2>Whoever calls me, we check them out</h2>

As he says, he also has a consulting firm and can, "if he wants, sell bananas as well."
- Whoever calls me, we check them out. Now we are waiting for a contract from Europe to be realized - says Karahodzha.
When it comes to the request of the RS Government, as he says, everything is stopped now.
- Now everything is on hold for the next three months. And it all goes through a firm in London. As far as I know, "AstraZeneca" has already contacted the RS Government. But I have no influence on the price of vaccines. Well you know the price of a mask was one cent in the beginning and now it’s 50 cents. See what the situation is. Demand for vaccines is high because people are dying en masse. Some, of course, offer more money. But I don't like injustice, because I work honestly - says Karahodža.

He confirmed to us that the RS Government had sent a letter asking for 500,000 doses of "AstraZeneca" vaccines

Bosnian at the center of scandal over vaccine trade, spoke for "Avaz"

On the occasion of the agreement signed today on the establishment of local government in the municipality of Srebrenica, which was signed on behalf of Bosniaks by the SDA, SB&amp;H and DF, the Alliance for a Better Future of B&amp;H issued a press release.
You can read the full press release below:
- As one of the leading predominantly Bosniak political parties since its founding, SBB has supported and advocated for the unity of Bosniaks in Srebrenica and a unified political performance. In this regard, in last year's local elections, SBB absolutely supported the pro-Bosnian list "My Address: Srebrenica", the joint candidate for mayor Alija Tabaković, and in the repeated elections the Alliance firmly supported the decision of Srebrenica's political representatives to boycott the elections. 
Therefore, today's move by the SDA, SB&amp;H and DF caught us off guard and we are absolutely surprised by the behavior of the SDA, which abused SBB and all other pro-Bosnian parties in order to eventually go into a coalition with genocide deniers.
SBB and other parties that were members of the pro-Bosnian block were not informed or consulted about the negotiations, nor about the signing of any agreement on the establishment of government with the SNSD. We are saddened by the fact that in the agreement that the SDA and its partners SB&amp;H and DF signed with the SNSD, the word genocide is not mentioned anywhere. Therefore, we believe that this violated the given word at the meeting initiated by the respected reis-l-ulema Hussein ef. Kavazović on March 5th this year - it is stated in the press release of SBB.

Aida Alihodžić published a confession about the death of her mother Amra Alihodžić in the Facebook group "Collective lawsuit against KCUS".
You can read her full confession below: 
- This is our story of how my sister Adisa and I lost our mother due to carelessness, incompetence and reckless "treatment".
Our mother Amra Alihodžić has been working at KCUS, at GAK since 1978. She felt her first symptoms on February 25 when she came from the night shift and since then the agony starts.

<h2>An insolent and up-and-coming employee</h2>

Her health condition is deteriorating two days later, she was tested on February 28th at the checkpoint in KCUS, which is located right next to the triage, in the afternoon we get the test result which was NEGATIVE. The very next day, March 1st, I took her to the COVID clinic Vrazova, where they took another swab for test, blood sample and x-rayed her lungs. In the afternoon we get the result of the test which was now POSITIVE, and the lung x-rays shows bilateral pneumonia. That day, March 1st, she received her first dose of Triax, and I literally had to pull the doctor on duty by the sleeve to answer my question of whether Mom should receive “Clexane” as well, given the complete clinical picture. She replied that there was no need, then I asked her if I could at least give her "Aspirin protect", to which she said "you can if you want".
The temperature that evening was the highest so far - as much as 39.4. I called an ambulance at 9:30 PM, I was told to give her a "Voltaren" suppository and to call them again in half an hour if the temperature doesn't drop and the muscle pain don't subside- which I did, of course.
I get an extremely insolent and up-and-coming employee who claims that the ambulance IS NOT COMING BECAUSE OF THE HIGH TEMPERATURE, although at the beginning of the conversation I emphasized that my mother has had diabetes and hypertension for years, and that I only recently lost my father (on the night my late dad was in pre-infarction condition, also an oncology patient, the ambulance came to the address after several consecutive calls and requests after 57 minutes, only that he has a heart attack two minutes later, he was resuscitated in front of me and my mother, but I will write about his death and negligent in treatment later), with a request to help me so that I would not be left without a mother as well. The request was of course denied.

The next day, March 2nd, I also felt the first symptoms. Despite that, I had to take my mother to the COVID clinic, because "THERE ARE NO MOBILE TEAMS FORMED TO VISIT PATIENTS IN DIFFICULT CONDITIONS." At the COVID clinic, they measured my mother's saturation, which was 90, and put her on oxygen for about 15 minutes and sent her home. Of course, high fever, cough, chest pain were also present that evening.
March 3rd - Mom receives a third dose of “Triax” and the same day I privately invited the HBL lab to come to my home address to measure D-dimers which are of course not checked at the COVID clinic.
March 4th - Mom receives the fourth dose of "Triax", as well as regularly drinks the prescribed amounts of vitamins, probiotics, aspirin protect; HBL laboratory takes blood at 10 o'clock, we get the result at 14 o'clock, and the result is 337 ng / Ml.
The ambulance still refuses to come, and after countless calls to the COVID clinic, the ambulance arrives to pick us up at 4:30 PM. The saturation at that time was 85 and they immediately put her on oxygen. In the meantime, they took a swab for the test and blood sample from me, x-rayed my lungs and gave me voltaren muscularly because I can't stand on my feet because of the pain. After two hours, they measure my mother's saturation again, which now dropped to 68 (I don't want to talk about the lack of oximeters in the ambulance and the search for the correct ones).
We received a referral to the General Hospital, but they refused to admit my mother on the grounds that "it was a deadly low saturation and that they were not equipped to work with such patients." The ambulance then takes us to the Department of Dermatology / Observatory where the mother is again connected to oxygen (flow 4 liters). Extremely friendly staff takes all my mother's medicines (diabetes, hypertension, vitamin, probiotics, etc.) and personal belongings, they write down my phone number and instructions for consuming the mentioned medicines.
My mom contacted me neatly after a few hours, praising the staff, their expertise and accessibility. We received information from the staff at 11 PM that the saturation was 93 and that the result of the PCR and serological test was NEGATIVE (as well as the test that was done again on March 7th).

March 5th - Mom calls me in the morning complaining of pain and difficulty breathing, as well as constant harassment by the Ministry of the Interior; they kept calling her on her cell phone to check where she was and if she was violating the isolation solution. I contacted the Ministry of the Interior and they told me that the KCUS did not provide them with a list of patients who had been hospitalized due to the COVID infection. At 1:30PM our mother informs us that they took her to KUM where a CT scan of the lungs was done, and at 5:00 PM I get the information that she was transferred to a new respiratory center, the staff from the observatory refers me to the number 033 / 297-802 which I immediately called . They confirmed to me that my mother was there, that she was stable, on oxygen (now at 15 liters), that she was allegedly out of life danger, and I could not get any other information.
Two hours later, acquaintances told us (not KCUS!) to buy two doses of the drug "Tocilizumab" 600 mg (the price of one dose in the pharmacy Dina is 989.00 KM x 2 = 1.978,00 KM), I barely handed over the drug begging the staff at the main gate to let me go, then I ran to the Center and handed the doorman on duty medicine in ice, some pajamas and underwear for my mother.
At 10 PM, I called 033 / 297-802 several times to find out if she had received the medicine, but there was no answer. An hour later, through acquaintances and friends, we learn that the mother is stable and communicative, that they gave her water, allegedly the first dose of medicine, but that the saturation dropped to 87 again.
March 6th - the day begins with calls to the Center, there are still no answers, of course. At 1 PM I receive a video call from my mother, she can't tell me anything, I see that she is already connected to NIV, she is breathing hard, the connection is broken and I get a message from her - HELP ME after which we invite acquaintances and friends to urge and check what's is happening there; we were told that she was still upset and that she had been given a second dose of "Tocilizumab".
In the following days, we cannot get any answers from the Clinic about her health condition. No one answered the phone on the Department, and on March 9th I received a message from my mother informing me that last night was extremely difficult, that the saturation had dropped again, that they had given her nothing to calm down and against the pain that evening, and that no one visited her all night. It was only in the morning during the visit when it was noticed that the kidneys were failing, that there was no urine in the catheter that they remembered to look at it!

<h2>"We kept calling some number, which no one answered".</h2>

March 10th - The agony continues, no one answers the phone in the Department for days. In the evening, my mother managed to send me a message that the saturation was declining again and that no one had changed and washed her.
March 11th - I receive a call from my mother's number in the early morning hours, an acquaintance tells me that my mother needs adult diapers, almond creme, etc. All of the above was packed, of course, and taken to the main gate of KCUS at 1:30 PM (the time set for taking over the items). However, that day at 3PM we left our things at the reception as no one from the Department came to pick them up.
Mom sends a message at 5:28 PM to a friend and begs her to find someone to change her clothes and to bring diapers that we had already brought that day, but that never reached her.
Around 7PM I go to one gate and then another one, hysterically demanding that things are found. The security recognized me as a person who used to come to the hospital with my mother to visit my sick father, so they called the ward and things were found an hour later. At 10 PM I was told that my mother's diaper had finally been changed, and by then she was lying wrapped in sheets.
March 12th - Everything that happened on this date is still unclear and contradictory. My mother called me around 10 in the morning with a message to send her pressure medication again, which I had delivered to her twice before. She was called by the police again that day. Inspecting the messages from my mother's phone, which she sent to her friends, I learned that she was not changed, that no one gave her water, even though I had been delivering water, medicine, juices, food and hygiene supplies to her for days.
March 13th - We have already given upon calling the ward, we are looking forward to mom calling us as usual in the morning. Unfortunately, only a call followed at 11:20 AM, which we feared for days - they reported that my mother's condition worsened during the night, that she was intubated, then resuscitated, and that she passed away after midnight. To my question "Why didn't anyone call me earlier", I was answered with "We kept calling some number, which no one answered".
I have to point out that they kept calling my mother’s number and the cell phone was with her at the hospital the whole time. I would also like to point out that I have given my contact numbers to various departments at KCUS several times.
The first night my mom was placed on Infectious ward I was told to bring all of her medication, which I did. However, all the medicines were returned to us after her death, and some were unpacked, as well as vitamins, fruit, food - everything that was brought to her every day, and we still haven't received a letter of discharge.
Although they have always claimed that she is one of the more stable patients and that she will reportedly be transferred to ward C3 if two tests are negative (and they were, the tests were done on March 5th and 7th), the question arises why she remained in the respiratory center until her death?
For all of the above, there are materials, photo and video evidence that will be attached to the lawsuit - wrote Aida Alihodžić.

Kemal Kilicdaroglu, leader of the main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP), may be a candidate in Turkey’s 2023 presidential election, an opposition politician said on Wednesday.

-Kemal Kilicdaroglu may consider becoming a presidential candidate. There is no harm there- Meral Aksener, leader of the opposition Good (IYI) Party, told reporters in the parliament.
To a question about her own possible candidacy, Aksener said she had never spoken about at any such move.
-We are listening to the troubles of the nation and bringing them to the agenda of public opinion- she said.
-Most importantly, I have been traveling [through Turkey] since January 20, 2020. While doing this work, I do not have any dream [about the presidency] related to my party or me. I do not have any dream besides Turkey, which I have said clearly.-Aksener, however, added that there “is a lot of time to the elections” so “we can see what happens.”

Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) said on Wednesday it had launched an inquiry into Facebook Inc, after a dataset reported to contain personal data relating to some 533 million Facebook users worldwide was made public.

Facebook said in a blog post last week that “malicious actors” had obtained the data prior to September 2019 by “scraping” profiles using a vulnerability in the platform’s tool for synching contacts.
The DPC said that having considered information provided by Facebook, it was of the opinion that one or more provisions of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation’s (GDPR) and/or the Data Protection Act 2018 “may have been, and/or are being, infringed in relation to Facebook Users’ personal data.”
A spokeswoman for Facebook said the company was cooperating fully with the inquiry “which relates to features that make it easier for people to find and connect with friends on our services.”
-These features are common to many apps and we look forward to explaining them and the protections we have put in place- the spokeswoman added.
The DPC is the European Union’s lead regulator of Facebook, Apple, Google and other technology giants under the GDPR’s “One Stop Shop” regime, due to the location of their EU headquarters in Ireland.
The regulator said last week that previous datasets were published in 2019 and 2018 relating to a large-scale scraping of the Facebook website, which at the time Facebook said occurred between June 2017 and April 2018, before the GDPR rules came in.
It also said last week that the newly published data leak seemed to comprise the original 2018 dataset combined with additional records, which may be from a later period.
The DPC had more than 27 major inquiries into U.S technology firms open at the end of last year, 14 of which are into Facebook and its WhatsApp and Instagram subsidiaries.

The developer of Russia's Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine said Wednesday its jab did not cause blood clots, a potential side effect that has disrupted rollouts in several Western countries.

The United States has recommended pausing its rollout of the Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine after one person out of nearly seven million Americans died from a rare type of clot in the brain following inoculation .
Denmark on Wednesday became the first country in Europe to suspend use of the AstraZeneca jab after reports of rare but serious cases of blood clots among those that had received the vaccine.
Like the Johnson &amp; Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccines, Russia's Sputnik V jab uses adapted strains of the adenovirus that causes the common cold.
On Wednesday, the state-run Gamaleya research institute, which developed Sputnik V vaccine, said there was no risk of blot clots from its jab.
-A comprehensive analysis of adverse events during clinical trials and over the course of mass vaccinations with the Sputnik V vaccine showed that there were no cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis- it said in a statement.
Russia's registration of Sputnik in August last year triggered criticism both at home and abroad over the fast-track procedure, but a leading medical journal said this year it was safe and highly effective.
The vaccine has been registered for use in dozens of countries.
The Gamaleya institute said it was "ready to share its purification technology with other vaccine producers in order to help them minimise the risk of adverse effects during vaccination."
President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday he had received the second dose of a vaccine against the coronavirus and encouraged Russians to follow his example.
He has not said which of Russia's three vaccines -- EpicVacCorona and CoviVac in addition to Sputnik V -- he received.

Denmark announced Tuesday it would stop using the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine altogether, becoming the first European country to do so over suspected rare but serious side effects.

Despite recommendations from the World Health Organization and European medicines watchdog to continue using the inoculation, "Denmark's vaccination campaign will go ahead without the AstraZeneca vaccine," Health Authority director Soren Brostrom told a press conference.
Denmark was the first country in Europe to suspend the use of the AstraZeneca jab in its vaccination rollout, after reports of rare but serious cases of blood clots among those that had received the vaccine.
More than a dozen countries followed suit but all but a few have since resumed the use after the European Medicines Agency (EMA) emphasised the benefits of the vaccine and deemed it "safe and effective".
Denmark had however continued to hold off using the vaccine as it conducted investigations of its own.
In Denmark, two cases of thrombosis, one of which was fatal, were linked to vaccinations after more than 140,000 people received the jab made by the Anglo-Swedish drugmaker.
In the country of 5.8 million inhabitants, eight percent have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19, and 17 percent have received a first dose.
Since suspending use of the AstraZeneca jab in March, Denmark has continued with the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna jabs.
The AstraZeneca suspension delays the country's ambitious vaccine rollout plans, but the health authority said in a statement that the availability of other vaccines combined with the pandemic being under control at the moment meant the inoculation campaign could continue without it.

Ryanair on Wednesday lost further legal challenges to state rescues of rival airlines as an EU court cleared pandemic aid to SAS and Finnair.

The cases were part of a legal campaign across Europe by the Irish low-cost carrier to stop bailout deals for the bloc's legacy airlines.
Ryanair said it would appeal the decisions and press on with its close to a dozen cases that also target Lufthansa, KLM and airBaltic.
In the case of Finland's biggest carrier, loan guarantees were "necessary in order to remedy the serious disturbance in the Finnish economy in view of the importance of Finnair for that economy," a court statement said.
In a separate decision, the court said state aid given to airline SAS by Sweden and Denmark was legal "given that SAS has the largest market share in Denmark and Sweden" with no close rival.
Ryanair has long railed against the support given to national champions, and is often backed by the European Commission which requests that companies make concessions -- such as giving up valuable flight slots in busy airports -- in return for state aid. 
But state aid rules have been considerably weakened to fight the pandemic and Ryanair has now lost four cases at EU courts.
Ryanair -- Europe's biggest airline in terms of passenger numbers -- is also seeking to undo Germany's massive bailout of Lufthansa in the EU courts as well as schemes in Spain, the Netherlands and Portugal.
-Today’s judgments set the process of liberalisation in air transport back by 30 years- Ryanair said in a statement.
-We will now ask the EU Court of Justice to overturn these unfair subsidies in the interests of competition and consumers- it added.
Ryanair has estimated the total state aid to airlines approved by Brussels since the beginning of the pandemic at 30 billion euros ($36 billion), including 11 billion to Lufthansa, 10.6 billion to Air France-KLM, 3.5 billion to Alitalia and 1.3 billion to SAS.
Based in Ireland but hugely popular in the UK, Ryanair was able to get a £600-million (690-million-euro, $832-million) emergency loan from British public authorities in May last year.

Bulgaria's long-time Prime Minister Boyko Borisov said Wednesday that he would not seek a new mandate as premier after this month's election resulted in a fragmented parliament.

Borisov's centre-right GERB party came first in the election, but the three-time premier admitted last week that he would not have the backing to ensure that a new government is accepted by parliament.
Nonetheless, he said he will propose a new cabinet even if it stands a slim chance of approval -- but without him at the helm.
-I won't be a candidate for the post of prime minister- the 61-year-old, who has ruled the EU member state virtually uninterrupted for a decade, declared on social media.
He said he did not want to "divide the nation".
-I will put forward another PM designate with a clear European and NATO orientation- he added, although he did not say who he would propose.
Huge anti-corruption protests shook Borisov's government last year, with demonstrators accusing it of favouritism, dependence on powerful oligarchs and weaponising prosecutions against political opponents.
After winning less than 27 percent of the vote in the April 4 election, GERB has just 75 lawmakers in the 240-seat parliament and lacks partners to govern.
If GERB's cabinet fails to secure parliamentary approval, President Rumen Radev will hand the mandate to form a government to the surprise second-placed anti-establishment party There is Such a Nation (TSN).
TSN leader Slavi Trifonov, a showman and TV presenter, is in isolation after contracting the coronavirus and has not yet spoken about his plans.
If TSN also fails to form a cabinet or win parliamentary approval, the mandate will go to a third and last party of Radev's choice.
If that party also fails, fresh elections will be called.

President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday he had received the second dose of a vaccine against the coronavirus and encouraged Russians to follow his example.

-I want to inform you that right now, before entering this room, I also received the second vaccination- he said during a televised meeting.
-I assume that you, taking care of yourself and your loved ones, will do the same and follow my example- he added.
The 68-year-old received his first dose on March 23 in private, declining to say which of Russia's three vaccines -- Sputnik V, EpiVacCorona or CoviVac -- he had been administered.
In late March he called on Russians to get inoculated against the coronavirus, saying the country would be able to end all measures to limit the spread of the virus when around 70 percent of adults had been vaccinated.
He predicted that would happen by the end of the summer.
At the time he said that some 6.3 million of the country's 144 million people had received a first dose of a vaccine. 
Despite beginning its vaccination campaign in early December ahead of most countries, Russia has struggled to inoculate its citizens.
Many Russians are sceptical of the vaccine, with a recent opinion poll showing fewer than a third are willing to get inoculated. 
Although Russia has been among the hardest hit by Covid-19, it has lifted nearly all of its pandemic restrictions, with health officials saying the worst of the country's outbreak passed over the winter. 
But infections in Moscow, the epicentre of Russia's outbreak, have begun climbing again recently, and authorities on Monday suspended most flights with Turkey citing rising cases there.
As of Wednesday, health officials had reported more than 4.6 million infections and 104,000 fatalities from the virus.

Respirators procured by the Federal Civil Protection Administration (FCPA) from China have been verified and put into operation.
This information was confirmed to the media on February 23rd by the acting director of FCPA Enes Memić and he added that "respirators are now in use in health care institutions for which they were procured". Memić then stated that the whole story about the respirators being unusable "fell into the water".

It is interesting that FCPA, an institution that, according to the order of the FB&amp;H Government, procured 100 respirators for 10.5 million KM, released this news to the public the day before the trial of Fadil Novalić, Fahrudin Solak, Fikret Hodžić and Jelka Milićević, thereby giving the defenses of the accused a tail wind.
But what has been silenced, and subsequently determined, is that 95 out of 100 purchased respirators have been serviced and verified. It has been hidden from the public for months that five respirators have never been serviced, because they obviously have a certain problem, which is why they have never been verified.

We learn that "Verlab" is still waiting for a call for verification of the other five devices and that the contract, which was determined by the State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA), which withdrew documents from this company and FCPA at the end of last week, has not been completed. It has been confirmed to us that the servicing has been going on for almost three months and it is not known when it will be completed.
Last year, we remind you, during the first verification, irregularities were found, as well as a system malfunction on these devices, which were "eliminated" by service technicians after two months.
Of the 95 respirators that passed the verification, 30 were requested and obtained by the Clinical Center of the University of Sarajevo (KCUS), headed by Sebija Izetbegović, while the other 65 are not used by any health institution in the Federation.

When we asked FCPA what happened to the five remaining respirators and why they were not working, we were told:
- Considering that the procurement procedure is being conducted before the Court of B&amp;H, and according to the order of the Cantonal Prosecutor's Office Sarajevo and the Municipal Court, representatives of the State Investigation and Protection Agency took over the original documentation related to the distribution, installation and verification of ACM812A respirators, and due to the interest of the investigation, we are not able to provide more information about the activities carried out by this administration, which relate to the respirators in question.

At the end of last week, SIPA members seized documentation on "Srebrena malina" respirators in three institutions. Those institutions are Clinical Center of the University of Sarajevo (KCUS), the "Verlab" laboratory and the Federal Civil Protection Administration (FCPA).
SIPA took out three registers from "Verlab", in which all work orders, measurement reports, the contract between FCPA and "Verlab", as well as certificates for all respirators verified so far.
It’s the same with FCPA. Contracts with "Verlab" were excluded. As far as KCUS is concerned, SIPA, according to the prosecutor's order, excluded documents on respirators that were put into operation in COVID wards.

It has been hidden from the public for months that five respirators have never been serviced, because they obviously have a certain problem, which is why they have never been checked
