The participants, some with children with them, criticized the measures taken by the authorities. Some protesters waved tricolor flags. Most of them did not wear a mask and did not respect physical distance, thus creating the conditions for a possible source of infection in the center of the Capital. This, given that on Saturday a record number of new cases of COVID-19 was registered – 3,517, compared to the last report, after conducting 29,284 tests nationwide. In Bucharest, according to the Strategic Communication Group, the coefficient of accumulated infections for 14 days, reported per 1,000 inhabitants, is 2.39.

Psychiatrist Gabriel Diaconu told Digi24 that the way we treat them and relate to citizens who protest against the rules of the pandemic is very important. “Right now, people who break health standards are beginning to be treated as second-class citizens. In mass psychology, social pressure creates extremes and extremism creates incidents and incidents lead to social violence. At the moment, treating these people as second-class is a mistake and turns into a snowball, because people who may still be skeptical but who are willing to listen, at this moment Who will see these people very vThe locals who protest will empathize with them more than with the weights or the people who follow the rules ”, explained Gabriel Diaconu.
