Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) Raed Arafat announced on Monday that Romania has received another 350 oxygen concentrators from the RescEU medical stockpile of the Netherlands."Several countries host the RescEU medical reserve. Romania was the first to do this with ventilators and masks. We needed oxygen concentrators, as per the call we released, and the country that had this stockpile was the Netherlands; the first time 200 concentrators were sent to Romania from the Netherlands, under the European Civil Protection Mechanism.
