The increased number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the last 24 hours should not worry us. This was the comment of Dr. Valeri Velev from the Children's Clinic of the Hospital for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases in Sofia regarding the 83 positive coronavirus samples registered for the last 24 hours, 52 of which - in the Smolyan region. According to the infectious disease specialist, outbreaks of the virus will keep appearing for some time to come, but when there is no distribution of cases across the entire country, the infection can be easily controlled through local measures.
