“Firmness, clarity, until everyone understands that all these measures must be respected. I know that these are not popular measures, but these measures were discussed with specialists, experts and everyone was convinced that without these measures we cannot go further ”, declared Klaus Iohannis this Thursday, at the beginning of the videoconference with the prefects.
However, Alexandru Rafila assures that he does not know which experts the president and the Orban government consulted for decision-making, since the COVID scientific groups have not met for a long time.
“Alexandru Rafila: There were no requests in this regard”
“I personally do not know who are the specialists who were consulted to make these decisions. This technical-scientific group has not met for about 2 months, so there is no request to convene the group, and the COVID-19 Scientific Commission, which is a commission of the Ministry of Health, meets periodically, once a year . month, often at the request of the members of this commission.
Neither the scientific-technical support group of the CNSU, nor the Scientific Commission of the ministry discussed these issues, there were no requests in this regard “, said Alexandru Rafila.
Klaus Iohannis: “We can see that the measures taken by the Government a few weeks ago”
On the other hand, the President was pleased that the measures that came into force a few weeks ago are beginning to take effect.
“We can already see that the measures taken by the Government a few weeks ago, which at that time gave rise to all kinds of debates, are already giving the first results. 3-4 weeks ago, the number of cases increased a lot from one week to another and now I think we are already in the third week when the maximum number of cases is around 10,000 and there are many days when the number of new infections is sensitive below 10,000. We cannot say that we have managed to stop the pandemic, but we have confirmation that the measures taken a few weeks ago have worked.
Klaus Iohannis: “The measures we are taking are well thought out, but they have not been enough”
These results, although they exist and show that the measures we are taking are well thought out, they were not enough. They were not enough because we see that in ATI the number of infected is increasing. We see that every day the number of deaths increases. Too many Romanians die from this disease and then obviously a new set of restrictive measures was imposed, “Iohannis also said.
