The mayor of Bucharest, Nicu declaróor Dan, declared this Thursday that he ensures that the schools of the Capital will remain closed and will operate online until the incidence rate of new cases of COVID-19 falls below level 3.
“Children are transmitters of this disease. The specialists I trust have said this. Since schools are a source of disease transmission, a security measure, since we are also in Bucharest, we can also do school online, under acceptable conditions. It is a measure that I wholeheartedly support. Until we reduce that index below 3, as the specialists establish, I claim that the schools will remain closed, ”said Nicușor Dan, on B1 TV.
