According to the Consul General of Bulgaria in Frankfurt, Antoaneta Baicheva, all 590 Bulgarians working for the largest German slaughterhouse have been tested.
Bulgarians are less than 10% of workers there, as there are larger groups of Romanian and Polish workers.

However, new tests will be conducted among staff at Geestland, Baicheva added.
