description The article points out how the largest penitentiary in the country and one of the largest institutions of this type of facility has faced the Covid 19 pandemic from the outbreak to the present days. Although the Institution was relatively unprepared for the infection of this extent, in cooperation with the competent health authorities and based on the decisions of the competent authorities in the Administration for the Enforcement of Penal Sanctions, the rapid spread of the disease was prevented and satisfactory results have been achieved so far. At one point, the number of positive cases for the virus was 380, but luckily, the symptoms were lighter. The basic method of action at that point was strict isolation and thanks to its application, no convicted person in the institution has fall for the disease. It is interesting that persons deprived of their liberty during the pandemic were engaged in the production of protective masks not only for the purposes of the institution within the Administration for the Enforcement of Penal Sanctions, but also for the needs of health care institutions in Sremska Mitrovica and throughout the Republic of Serbia.
