The number of new cases of Coronavirus in Romania remains high during this period, even if we are still talking about an apparent stabilization of the increase in infections, only that it was achieved at a fairly high level, which still maintains a state of concern regarding possible increases bigger.
The Romanian authorities are talking about the fact that in mid-August there should be a decrease in the number of new cases of infection, but they are already visible in the last days, so it is possible that the good news will come much faster for us.
The situation at the moment is serious, somewhat worrying, but the authorities in Romania expect things to return to some sort of normal in the next period, at least until October or November, when the situation could become serious again, unfortunately.
