Prime Minister Ludovic Orban said on Sunday evening that he recommends the use of protective masks, but the obligation cannot be imposed as long as the production capacity cannot be ensured so that every citizen can purchase their own masks at reasonable prices.
"You cannot impose this obligation as long as there is no production capacity that gives every citizen the opportunity to purchase, at decent prices, reasonable prices, the quantities of masks needed. Surely there is this recommendation, but who is going to impose this obligation without giving the citizens the opportunity to find these masks ... I do not think improvisations are doing any good. The citizens need the so-called surgical masks that offer an important degree of protection and which are not for close contact with people who are at risk of being infected," said Orban, in an interview with private broadcaster Digi 24.
The prime minister also said that talks are being conducted with the representatives of some companies for accreditation so that they can produce masks.
