"There are two amendments, the one related to schools and I have said they are to continue with physical attendance [over the incidence rate of 6 per thousand inhabitants -ed.n.] and there will be those non-invasive tests that will be done and the decision will belong with the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education, whether twice a week or once a week. And the other decision is just an amendment, over 6 per thousand we keep the activities as they are, the economic activities, for HoReCa too, and gyms and other activities, but we take out the testing part, so there remains proof of having had the disease or of being vaccinated for access," Prime Minister Florin Citu said on Thursday evening.
