7.707 cases of infection with the new Coronavirus have been detected so far in Romania, again increasing, as is expected for this time of the year, and the authorities have announced that this will happen before reaching the peak the epidemic in Romania.

The very good part is that the number of cured people is constantly increasing, almost reaching 20% ​​of the total number of infected people, which makes us happy, although the number of deceased people increases daily by a few dozen, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, the number of people hospitalized in intensive care remains high, and this is a very big concern because a steep increase in the number of people who need treatment in this way can block the health system.

Unfortunately, there are still many fines applied daily by the authorities in Romania, this number increasing near Easter because many people ignore the recommendations of the authorities during this period, which puts us all in danger.
