The coronavirus remains a source of concern in Romania, and in many areas of Europe, during this period when in some countries the number of new cases is starting to increase again, and many civilized countries are in no hurry to completely abandon restrictions, even if they have rates of vaccination much higher than Romania.
The coronavirus is still spreading across the community in Romania, according to Romanian Government officials, which means that we must continue to be extremely vigilant, even if there are no restrictions regarding preventive measures, but either one has the freedom to protect themselves, or no, he wants anyway.
The number of new cases is constantly decreasing during this period, and this led to the total change of the vaccination campaign, which is no longer focused on vaccination centers, but will move to family doctors, where they can be done with the exclusivity of vaccines against COVID-19 starting from the following period.
"In the last 24 hours, 1.626 new cases of people infected with SARS - CoV - 2 (COVID - 19) were registered, 1.117 less than the previous day. 180 of the new cases in 24 hours are from reinfected patients who tested positive more than 90 days after the first infection.
