Covid-19.<\/strong> Romania reported on Sunday over
\n11,500 new Covid infections in 41,000 people tested and 298 related fatalities,
\nwhile 1,750 Covid patients are in intensive care. The Covid incidence rate for
\nthe last fortnight in Bucharest is 16 cases per 1,000 inhabitants, from under 2
\nper 1,000 a month ago. As far as the vaccination rate is concerned, almost 6
\nmillion people in Romania have had at least one dose, with almost 60,000 people
\ngetting their jab in the last 24 hours. In another move, Romania’s
\nrepresentative at the World Health Organisation Alexandru
\nRafila said the organisation’s experts requested a meeting with the National
\nPublic Health Institute to look into the causes of the epidemiological disaster
\nin Romania, as well as to provide help with the vaccination campaign and assess
\nthe needs of the country’s hospitals. <\/span><\/p>\n

Aid. <\/strong>International aid continues to
\narrive in Romania to help with the management of the health crisis after the
\nRomanian state requested European support to combat the consequences of an
\nexponential rise in new Covid cases. 15 ventilators and 8 oxygen concentrators
\nused in the treatment of Covid patients arrived on Saturday from Denmark.
\nHospitals in Szeged and Debrecen, in Hungary, are treating 20 Romanian
\npatients, and others are about to be transferred to other hospitals in Hungary.
\nA group of doctors and nurses from the neighbouring Republic of Moldova will
\narrive on Monday at the mobile unit in Le\u0163cani, near Ia\u015fi, in north-eastern
\nRomania. Under the EU civil protection mechanism, The Netherlands has already
\ndelivered 200 oxygen concentrators and Poland 50, and Italy has sent 5,200
\nvials of monoclonal antibodies which are part of the standard treatment of
\nCovid patients. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

List.<\/strong> An updated list of countries
\nwith high epidemiological risk came into force in Romania today. Ukraine and
\nGibraltar are now on the red list, following an increase in cases, while
\nAlbania and the Virgin Islands of the United States, which saw a drop in cases,
\nwere moved to the yellow list. The Netherlands, Gabon, Montserrat and the
\nBritish Virgin Islands, where cases have risen, are now also on the yellow
\nlist. Switzerland, Canada, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Andorra and Greenland are on the
\ngreen list. Travellers from yellow and red list countries who are fully
\nvaccinated against Covid-19 are not required to isolate on entering Romania. <\/p>\n

Politics. <\/strong>Prime minister designate
\nDacian Ciolo\u015f is planning
\nto submit in Parliament the list of a minority Save Romania Union cabinet after
\nhe failed to rebuild the coalition with the National Liberal Party and the
\nDemocratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians in Romania. The party’s political bureau
\nis meeting today to analyse and approve the governing programme and the cabinet
\nmembership. Although Ciolo\u015f was willing to negotiate with the Liberals,
\nFriday’s meeting was cancelled after the Liberal leader, outgoing prime
\nminister Florin C\u00ee\u0163u, said Ciolo\u015f should form a government with the Social
\nDemocratic Party and the Alliance for the Union of Romanians, alongside which
\nthe Save Romania Union voted to bring down the government. The same message
\ncame from the leader of the Democratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians in Romania,
\nKelemen Hunor, who said the prime minister designate did not manage to restore
\na minimum level of trust that would have allowed the recreation of the
\ncoalition. Dacian Ciolo\u015f ruled out any talks with the Social Democrats and
\ncalled for responsibility. (CM)<\/p>\n
