The situation will not improve all of a sudden after 13 May. It will take more months of keeping up very strict measures of isolation and of vigilance when we travel or go inside a shop, and avoid gathering in groups. In mid-May or the end of the month we shall reach the peak of the epidemic when some kind of initial collective immunity will have been built up, said Dr. Bogdan Petrunov, former director of the National Centre for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases.
