Description: Theaters and many other cultural institutions or restaurants and even schools will be closed from March 8, 2021 in Bucharest
Fortunately, museums remain open during these two weeks when many other institutions are closed in Bucharest. Unfortunately, parties with more than 6 persons are not allowed. Of course, we are not talking about private parties. These are not recommended either.
Since this madness had started last year, we, for example, have discovered the parks where you can walk, stay and enjoy a cup of coffee or a beer, of course if the weather allows that. Let’s hope this year, we’ll have a great weather in March. See how it usually is HERE.

HOW IS THE COVID SITUATION IN BUCHAREST
In the past 24 hours, in Romania there were identified 3.288 new persons infected with covid 19, which means that from 6 tested, 1 was positive and had to go to isolation or even hospital. Bucharest is in the top of the cities where the infection rate grows and grows. In the past 24 hours, 664 persons found out that they caught the virus. This is one of the reasons, new restrictions are to be applied from midnight in the Romanian capital. If the infection rate fall under 3 at 1000 persons, it is possible some of these restrictions to be aborted.
