Factors that led to an increase in the number of COVID-19 infections in Romania 2020

Published by Statista Research Department, Jan 24, 2023

The majority of respondents believed that the main cause for the increasing number of COVID-19 infections in Romania over the last weeks was because people did not respect the authorities' recommendations regarding social distancing and did not wear protective masks in public places. Only one fourth of respondents considered that lifting the restrictions too soon determined to a great extent the increasing number of infections.
