Romania Hits Record of 328 Coronavirus Deaths on Wednesday

BUCHAREST, Romania — Romania hit a record of 328 coronavirus deaths on Wednesday, a day after reaching more than 15,000 confirmed cases.

Romania is the second-least vaccinated country in the EU with just 35% of adults fully vaccinated. Government data indicates that more than 90% of the 328 who died were unvaccinated against COVID-19.

President Klaus Iohannis on Wednesday called the unfolding coronavirus situation a “catastrophe.”

Romania, a country of 19 million, has confirmed more than 1.3 million cases and 38,260 confirmed deaths.
