COVID test centers will be reopened
The COVID testing centers will be reopened, the Minister of Health announced, amid the doubling of the number of coronavirus infections in the last week, in Romania. Alexandru Rafila recommends those who have symptoms to go to the family doctor. The Minister of Health also reminds that hygiene rules must continue to be followed, and wearing a mask in crowded areas provides protection against infection.
Alexandru Rafila: Nobody imposes anything, these are just recommendations. Using the mask indoors or in public transport and avoiding congestion are already known measures, as is hand hygiene. Local authorities should consider regular sanitation of public transport. And another extremely important thing, to ensure the ventilation of public spaces. Ventilation is one of the most effective methods of reducing transmission, it costs nothing, it only takes initiative and rigor to ventilate public spaces where there are regularly large numbers of people./aboboc
