The National Committee for Emergency Situations (CNSU) has approved, on Thursday, the decision to propose the extension of the state of alert on the entire territory of Romania, for a period of 30 days, starting with September 10, Agerpres informs.
According to the decision, starting September 13, the continuation for another 60 days of the pilot-project conducted on the Sibiu International Airport's Arrivals terminal is approved.

In the mentioned period, all persons transiting the Arrivals terminal of the Sibiu International Airport can be subjected to checks to detect infections with the SARS-CoV-2 virus conducted by specially trained canine teams. The persons indicated by the canine teams as possible infected are freely tested with a rapid test for SARS-CoV-2 virus infection by the staff of the Sibiu Public Health Directorate (DSP Sibiu) or the medical staff existing at the level of the airport. The rapid tests used as part of the pilot project are freely ensured by DSP Sibiu.
Also starting September 13, a similar pilot-project is approved to start for a period of 60 days on the grounds of the Avram Iancu International airport in Cluj.
