Health Minister Nelu Tataru told a news briefing on Tuesday that a school will close if there are three cases of COVID-19 infection in different classrooms.
He added that sick children should be kept at home and parents contact the family physician and notify the school.
"The parent who has a sick child at home will keep him or her at home, contact the family physician, notifying the school that the child is ill and taking action accordingly together with the family physician, who will say whether it is a treatment that can be followed at home or if it is part of a case definition that requires additional assessments are needed, as well as to an epidemiological investigation," Tataru explained.
