Coronavirus – Romania declares mandatory quarantine for Hungarian travellers

Romania has declared 14 days of mandatory quarantine for Hungarian travellers and to other citizens of 48 nations where the coronavirus infections are close to the Romanian data.

Turizmus Online reported that the operative board of Romania has decided to rewrite the so-called yellow-country-regulations. In Romania 110 out of 100,000 citizens might get infected, while in Hungary this number is higher, around 130. For those people who do not experience symptoms, the ten-day mandatory quarantine can be left after providing one negative coronavirus test.

Citizens arriving from dangerous countries do not have to go to quarantine if they intend to spend less then three days in Romania. All these citizens need to have a negative coronavirus test made 48 hours before arriving.

Citizens from foreign countries are forbidden to take part in Romanian religious events. During this season, more than 10,000 people from other countries tend to travel to Romania for the St. Paraschiva religious celebrations. Sadly, this year it is not possible due to the epidemic. The Romanian operative board has obliged counties and major cities of Romania to work out every necessary restriction and further steps for an expected outbreak and increase of infections. Local curfews and ordering home office will be available options for every city and region.
