“We reached a vaccination level of only 60 percent. The mistrust of immunization started in 2008 when we had the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus Infection-ed.) vaccination campaign that was not done properly, the benefits were not explained, and people reacted and rejected the campaign. Then there was the problem of the COVID-19 pandemic, some Romanians distrusted vaccination”, said Alexandru Rafila at Digi24.
Minister's statements
– There is also mistrust in the health system, and this also translates into mistrust in vaccination
-In a world without vaccines, we would have millions of children and adults dead per year
-During the Covid vaccine scandal, we undertook to buy 39 million doses, a totally unrealistic figure
– We couldn't buy so many doses, it was an enormous amount, we have 8 million vaccinated people
– We have a problem with the family doctors, I hope we can solve it, we took out 700 new posts in addition to the several thousand
– The Single Integrated Information System – CNAS Portal – will be modified because it is outdated. The new system will even allow fraud to be discovered. If a doctor consulted, according to the documents, in one day how much in 80 hours is a problem
