Ludovic Orban explained why Romania does not do more tests, although the capacity would be 50,000 tests per day, and the collected samples do not exceed 40,000. According to the prime minister, the case definition does not allow testing a greater number of Romanians, although 36,000 or 38,000 were made when the daily number of infections was less than 5,000, and almost 10,000, when the number of contacts should be greater, the number of tests is not growing yet.
“I would like to say the reality, Romania is in 17th place in the EU in terms of infection. It is a second wave, Romania is not in the first places. We have school doctors who have registered in the Ambulance and are involved in the gathering activity.

We have a capacity of 50,000 tests per day. But the evidence is based on a case definition. You can’t test anyone. This is a bastard (no tests are done not to detect too many infected, because they could not cope with the hospitals)! We test how much we have to prove. All calls to 112 are recorded. The case definition test is done on some parameters.
We have decided to buy three million antigen tests. But beware of these tests, one: they cannot establish the diagnosis if you test positive, you have to double the test with a real-time PCR test, but they help you, in triage, at the UPU to get an image ( …) On the other hand, the relevance of this test is for symptoms.
The tests are done only to detect symptoms. If other categories are considered, we will test. You cannot run a test center overnight. When I hear such statements in public space, I want to shake my head! ”Said Ludovic Orban on Digi 24.
