Raed Arafat: Announcement with regard to the Quarantine of Bucharest

Raed Arafat announces Bucharest quarantine

Raed Arafat was recently asked if the application of a quarantine for the city of Bucharest is being taken into account in the context in which the number of new cases of Coronavirus has brought the incidence rate to over 3/1000 inhabitants, a point from which measures should be imposed much more serious prevention.

Raed Arafat says that the quarantine of Bucharest was not taken into account, not even in today's meeting of the capital's prefecture, and it will not be done again because we are talking about the economic center of the country, which the authorities do not want to block due to the pandemic .

"Tomorrow there will be a meeting at the Bucharest Prefecture, but it is about extending the current measures by 14 days, not for quarantine. At this moment, the quarantine of Bucharest was not discussed. Ilfovul came with the quarantine of several localities.

On Sunday there will be a meeting of the Municipal Committee for Emergency Situations, to extend the measures that are still in force today. They were taken for 14 days and expire on Sunday. They will most likely be extended in today's form. We haven't set the time yet."
