The medical staff and employees of the National Agency for Public Health, the staff subordinated to the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Defense and the National Penitentiary Authority involved in combating COVID-19 infection will continue to benefit from salary increases of up to 100% of the basic salary.

"This extension is made until August 1 to ensure measures to protect people with disabilities and avoid congestion," said Viorica Dumbrăveanu, the Minister of Health.

At the same time, in order to ensure the protection of the elderly, but also of the disabled, the project provides for the payment of social benefits at home.
