The measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic were taken too late and do not include all the methods of combating the virus, former epidemiologist Mihai Rudetski was quoted by IPN as saying in the talks show “Expertise hour” on Jurnal TV channel.
“All those who return home should be placed under institutional quarantine in Vadul lui Vodă or at “MoldExpo”. According to my information, these persons organize copious meals with relatives, children. The word “quarantine” should be written on each gate of houses where there are persons who came from Italy, France, Spain,” stated Mihai Rudetski.
MP Alexandru Slusari said that from pandemic viewpoint, logical measures are being taken, but from economic viewpoint the relevant measures are implemented with big delays.
“Measures that are implemented in other countries are taken in our country too. There is particular logic in them. The Government would achieve more without the involvement of President Dodon who comes up with chaotic, confused solutions and with different improvisations. There is a disaster from socioeconomic viewpoint. The Government is permanently late in making announcements for businesses, supporting the population. It does not cap prices of essential food products. The measures intended for the business community are overdue and inefficient,” stated the vice president of the PPPDA.
He noted three are also questions as to the number of COVID-19 test kits existing in the country and the level of protection ensured for doctors.
As to the panic that was allegedly caused in society owing to particulars criticism, MP Dumitru Alaiba said the government will act promptly only under the pressure of society.
“We all want the government to solve these problems. It’s true that the life of each of us depends on its accomplishments. We witness problems related to transparency, promptitude and the responsibility of this government. Our criticism is designed not to generate panic, but to help the government act correctly,” stated the official.
Activist Oleg Brega, who is now in Romania, said the situation in Romania and Moldova is much the same.
“Romania and the Republic of Moldova are governed as irresponsibly. We have the same level of corruption, poverty and the medical institutions are as unprepared as investments were made in something else. The parishioners and clerics, politicians and the police will be affected by this disease the first as they didn’t react in time to stop the holding of services and the communion taken with the same teaspoon. I’m afraid we are as irresponsible. I do not see a major difference between the two banks of the Prut,” stated Oleg Brega.
