Tourism and vaccination

Tourists who want to visit the Corvin Castle in Hunedoara today will also have the opportunity to get vaccinated.

No appointment is required, and the serums used are from Pfizer and Johnson @ Johnson.

Also, in Deva, employees from the hospitality industry and tourism will be able to get vaccinated during a campaign that takes place at the drive-through Immunization Center in the city.

Employers in the field hope that this sector will return to normal in August, the vaccination of the staff being seen as a great chance for this domain to make a comeback.

Lucian Stanciu, president of the Deva Tourism Employers' Organization: We have established that this weekend a vaccination flow will be organized for those in the field of tourism and HoReCa in the Auchan Parking Lot, a flow with the Johnson vaccine that does not require a booster, so that in 14 days after vaccination people can go about their business as usual. This is the only chance we have if we want to return to the new normality, because "normal" as known before will never come back.

Reporter: The losses registered by the tourism operators of Hunedoara county during the pandemic period are very high, around 80% in the field of urban tourism. Also, half of the jobs were lost.
