Romanian expert urges national defense council to step in over falling vaccination rates

Childhood vaccination rates in Romania have dropped past critical safety thresholds, prompting calls for high-level government intervention to prevent further loss of life.

Dr. Gindrovel Dumitra, coordinator of the vaccinology group at the National Society of Family Medicine, stated that distorted public perceptions surrounding vaccine safety have reached a dangerous point. He urged Romania's Supreme Council for National Defence (CSAT) to take responsibility and intervene, emphasizing that public health is directly tied to national security.

Medical professionals are advocating for a coordinated state strategy to counter anti-vaccine disinformation, rebuild public trust in healthcare infrastructure, and restore pediatric immunization coverage to safe levels nationwide.
