Tragedy in Smederevska Palanka: 7-Month-Old Baby Dies Amid Doctor Negligence Allegations

A baby just seven months old has died after, according to the family, a doctor at the “Stefan Visoki” General Hospital in Smederevska Palanka sent the child home despite being in a severe medical condition! Is this a tragic accident or a shocking medical failure?

The “Stefan Visoki” hospital responded with a statement saying it is operating at full capacity and cooperating fully with all relevant authorities to determine the circumstances of the baby’s treatment and any possible mistakes.
