Vama Veche 2020

I never imagined I will live to see Vama Veche empty on May 1st. At the beginning of the summer of 2020, Vama Veche strikes the viewer with its emptiness as a result of the lockdown imposed to limit the spread of new coronavirus.

Romania is under emergency state with all public food outlets and socializing venues closed, while people are strongly encouraged to limit movement to strictly essential trips.

For some people the new COVID-19 coronavirus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, but for some it can cause severe illness including pneumonia.
