"We cannot talk about coronavirus outbreaks in schools. I will not respond to speculations about when and whether distance learning will take place." This was what Chief State Health Inspector Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev told BNT.

In classes where there are carriers of the virus, there would be 14 days of distance learning. Certain schools will also be closed if several classes are affected.

"This year there will be no flu breaks, but a transition to training in an electronic environment," Assoc. Prof. Kunchev added.
