Doctors draw attention to the fact that self-medication, based on online forum information and on social networks, can reduce the patients healing chances, because they may be diagnosed rather late. The campaign is launched in the context in which on Wednesday, the government approved a draft law introducing mandatory child vaccination. The state is funding and organising the process of vaccination in Romania, also providing efficient and safe vaccines.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>BORDER POLICE<\/strong> &#8211; The Romanian border police say there is an increase in the number of people trying to illegally cross the countrys borders, especially Romanias north-western frontier, with Hungary. The root cause is the shift of the flow of migrants from Serbia to Romania, after the anti-migrant fence on the Serbian-Hungarian border has been removed. According to the Romanian authorities, the number of people trying to illegally cross Romanias borders going abroad has increased 6 times, as compared to the first semester of 2016, most of them being Iraqi, Syrian, Turkish and Iranian nationals. Some 1,000 people trying to illegally cross the border have been stopped at the frontier, most of them in the western county of Arad, which is closer to the migrants centre in Timisoara, western Romania.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>VISIT<\/strong> \u2013 French President, Emmanuel Macron, will pay a visit to Romania on August 24, at the invitation of his counterpart Klaus Iohannis. Talks will focus on boosting and deepening bilateral relations under the Strategic Partnership, as well as on major issues on the European and international agenda. The visit was agreed upon during a bilateral meeting between the two heads of state on the sidelines of the European Council of June 23, when Emmanuel Macron accepted the proposal made by Klaus Iohannis to continue dialogue in Bucharest.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>WEATHER<\/strong> \u2013 The National Meteorology Administration has issued a code orange alert against heat and thermal discomfort valid today, for six counties in western Romania and another code yellow alert valid for 13 counties in the western half of the country. Sweltering temperatures are reported in lower areas in western Romania as well as in some places in the centre and the south, and the thermal-humidity comfort index reached and even exceeded the critical threshold of 80 units. Maximum temperatures will go up to 39 degrees Celsius. The noon reading in Bucharest was 32 degrees. Meteorologists say the heat wave will linger until the end of the week. Atmospheric instability will also be registered in the afternoon, in places, in the mountains, particularly in the northwest. Traffic has been restricted in the afternoon, in areas under code orange alert, for heavy trucks, weighing over 7.5 tons, with the exception of those carrying perishable goods. In another move, experts say Romania will increasingly be affected by drought in most regions, mainly due to sweltering temperatures in the absence of rainfalls. In early May, representatives of the Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences in Bucharest said the recent weather phenomena have produced extensive damage to orchards and vineyards, some cultures being compromised to a large extent. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><p><b>TENNIS<\/b> -&#13;<br \/>\nRomanian woman tennis player Simona Halep, WTA no.2, has qualified to the round&#13;<br \/>\nof sixteen of the Toronto tennis tournament, with over 2.4 million dollars in&#13;<br \/>\nprize money up for grabs, after defeating Slovakia&#8217;s  <span>Magdalena&#13;<br \/>\nRybarikova (WTA no.33 WTA)<\/span><span>, <\/span><span>in two sets.
