Romania has implemented a wide range of measures in order to consolidate the public health system, which include the modernization of medical infrastructure and the improvement of the response capacity in case of health emergency.
In 2022, the Romanian authorities approved the National Epidemic Response Concept, which provides defining elements for ensuring continuity of governance, health care, social and economic life, as well as aspects of public communication and coordination of international assistance mechanisms.
In Romania, strategic stocks of personal protective equipment, medicines and other essential resources have been created, in order to ensure their availability in case of epidemics or pandemics.
Romania was the first country to develop in 2022 the first medical stockpile within the RescEU, a resource of the European Union Civil Protection Mechanism, created to intervene in overwhelming situations, where the general capacities existing at national level are not able to ensure an effective response to different types of disasters.
Romania has also increased its capacity to test and diagnose infectious diseases, including by opening new laboratories and training specialized staff.
The Romanian authorities have carried out extensive vaccination campaigns against COVID-19 and other diseases, in collaboration with the Romanian Red Cross. They have also organized information and awareness campaigns on the importance of prevention measures.
The Department for Emergency Situations, in collaboration with UN, UNDRR, has organized, between 23 and 24 February 2023 the event entitled “Understanding and communicating existing and future risks: Ensuring evidence-based communication & preventing mis- and disinformation”.
