Prime Minister Ludovic Orban said that in the towns where it will be found that the percentage of COVID infections has been exceeded, with respect to that established by the authorities, it will be decided that, for a time, the activity of restaurants will be restricted.

“In those localities where the percentage is exceeded, which is set at 1.5%, the decision will be made to restrict the activity for a period, until the percentage falls below 1.5%”, Ludovic Orban said on Thursday when asked if there was a possibility that the restaurants would close again.

The prime minister made the statement as he left the National Conference of the Hotel Industry.

During the day, the representatives of HORECA asked him what the intentions of the Government and the Emergency Situations Committee are, respectively, regarding the closure of restaurants.

“The National Committee for Emergency Situations has the power to order restrictions at the national level. According to the Government Decision on the extension of the alert state, based on the CNSU proposal, decisions are made at the county level or, respectively , at the level of Bucharest, at the municipal level, The Municipal Committee for Emergency Situations in Bucharest (…) There is a certain concern, now I must tell you that in epidemiological investigations, based on the data provided to me by the Ministry of Health , not necessarily going to the restaurant under normal conditions is the one that entails the increased risk of transmission, as well as events – weddings, baptisms … Because here the reality is that the rules are not respected, the maximum number of people, the distance and so on., people ignore the normal rules “, Orban said.

The Prime Minister specified, when consulted by the Capital, that “this possible assessment is also under discussion, to differentiate the cases by sectors”, but added that “Bucharest itself is Bucharest, the transition from one sector to another is very frequent “.

He added that in the electoral campaign “the electoral process was very fluid.”

“But we couldn’t control the joy of the victories and in 3,300 localities those who won were so happy that they organized parties of dozens, hundreds of people, too, without masks, without … Not really Wherever our people won, there was a little more than respect for the rules, at least in the urban environment, and from our point of view, we establish some rules, the decisions are made by the County Committees for Emergency Situations. we gave the possibility to decide on the locality, not take the percentage on the region and decide on the locality “, Orban said.
