In Romania, the number of newly identified coronavirus infections has risen again by more than 1,200 and the opening of schools for September 14 has become uncertain.
According to Saturday’s report from the Strategic Communications Tribe, another 1,269 people have been diagnosed with the infection in the past 24 hours, slightly above the average for the past two weeks. Since Friday’s report, another 38 infected have lost their lives – that number is nearly 15% lower than the average for the past two weeks.
In Romania, the epidemic has so far claimed 3,850 victims and 40,000 of the almost 94,000 registered infections have been declared cured. There are currently 7,237 patients treated in the hospital, 476 of whom are cared for in an intensive care unit.
Has created insecurity in the country Ludovic orban a statement from the prime minister on Friday suggesting that schools would only open from October. The start of the school year, announced for September 14, would not be postponed, but education would begin online everywhere for the first two weeks, and teachers and students would return to classrooms only from October in settlements with low infection rates.
According to the Prime Minister, the proportion of infected who have returned from vacation is high, which prevents potentially infectious teachers and students returning from vacation from coming into contact with the school community immediately.
The other aspect is the organization of the municipal elections announced for September 27. This is because most polling stations are traditionally located in schools, so due to post-voting preparations and disinfection, educational institutions should be closed for a few days anyway.
