Summary/Abstract: Following the state of emergency declared as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Romanian legislator adopted in March 2020 an Emergency Ordinance which, among others, modified the Criminal Code and introduced a new offence, which sanctions the omission to declare certain information regarding the possibility of having had contact with a person infected with a contagious disease. The paper underlines the deficiencies of these modifications, analyzing the lack of clarity of several notions used by the legislator, as well as the potential negative effects of such way of regulating criminal offences.
