Health Minister Alexandru Rafila in Timisoara on Friday said that there are currently around 1,000 cases per day of infection with the novel coronavirus, estimating that there will be an increase in the next one to two weeks, after which the situation should return to normal.
"The measures are those that are usually taken when discussing a respiratory transmissible disease. Each health facility takes internal legal measures to limit transmission in the hospital, grouping patients according to the situation. We have around 1,000 cases per day at the moment, but we are only talking about some overcrowding in some infectious disease hospitals. But the measures that are being taken for influenza, for example, are similar for the new coronavirus infection. We will probably have one or two more weeks of increase and then the situation will begin to return to normal," said Minister Alexandru Rafila.
