“We are on a plateau of disease”, say our officials, who point out that the number of new infections remains high.
Unfortunately, the number of deaths is also increasing. Only 23 others registered on Tuesday, and the total number is now 841.
Romania has been registering 300-350 new cases per day for some time. The variations are small, specialists say, so the line has stabilized, we are on the plateau.
Increasing test capacity is essential
But it is not yet known whether we have reached the peak of the pandemic. Essential is an increasing testing capacity.
Ludovic Orban: “17 more centers are being accredited, and our goal is to increase testing capacity to more than 15,000 tests daily.”
Alexandru Rafila: “If the number doesn’t increase despite increased diagnostic capacity, it means we’ve stabilized.” We can hope that we are in a period when we could have reached the top, but no one can appreciate it now, there must be a steady decline. “
Prevention continues to play a key role. Social distancing, isolation, disinfection and hand washing, even during the relaxation period of the measures. Beyond the fact that we will be forced to leave the houses only with a mask.
100 million masks will be on the market on May 15
100 million protective masks should be on the market on May 15, when they are mandatory in public spaces. At least that was the estimate made by officials. It remains to be seen whether we will succeed or wake up to a standstill. The truth is that at the moment, only in Romania, 23 companies are authorized to produce masks.
Alexandru Rafila: “It is a daily consumption that must be estimated. The active population, we need to calculate at least two masks a day for the active.”
Also as a precautionary measure, visits to family doctors and specialists will continue to be limited.
On the other hand, specialists advise people with chronic diseases not to avoid going to the hospital for fear of getting sick, as their condition could worsen.
