The Coronavirus Pandemic is starting to become more and more serious in Romania, after a long period of plateau, the daily number of cases being on a serious increase again, and all this two weeks after the resumption of school, and the massive movement of people through the country.
Unfortunately, including the number of people entering the ATI is continuously increasing, as are the deaths, and this despite the plateau that existed in Romania in the last weeks, and if the number of cases increases, we will see big increases here as well.
The vaccination campaign is still going in the right direction at the moment, with more and more vaccinations with the first dose done in our country, and this is the best news because the number of immunized Romanians continues to increase, and this will help to return to a normal life.

*Regarding the "new cases not allocated by county", we specify that their number is determined by the changes made to the electronic platform through which the test results for the new coronavirus are reported and centralized. Thus, according to the new methodology, the test centers directly enter the results of the tests carried out, following which the epidemiological investigation is carried out at the level of the Public Health Directorates and the positive cases are assigned to the county/locality to which the infected persons belong.
The coefficient of cumulative infections per 14 days, reported per 1.000 inhabitants, is calculated by the Directorates of Public Health, at the level of the Municipality of Bucharest and the counties. Below you have the graph made based on the reports received by the CNCCI from the Public Health Directorates:
