President Klaus Iohannis said on Thursday that Romania needs to increase its COVID-19 testing resources and streamline its public health directorates.
"Regarding our health system, the minister of health presented to me the measures designed to deal with wave four [of the COVID-19 pandemic]. Doctors are already well trained and experienced. There is a clear need to streamline public health directorates. I'm expecting more involvement from everyone to increase the testing resources, as well as to prepare the healthcare system to take on non-COVID patients as well. Those patients should receive the treatments they need and not suffer as the 4th wave intensifies," Iohannis told a news conference at the Cotroceni Presidential Palace.
The clarifications were made at the end of a working meeting on the beginning of the new school year with Health Minister Ioana Mihaila and Education Minister Sorin Cimpeanu.
