Today, 19 October, when the Bulgarian Orthodox Church marks the day of St. Ivan (John) of Rila, is the Day of Bulgarian Doctors.

On this occasion, Minister of Health Kostadin Angelov addressed doctors in this country, congratulating them for their dedication and enumerating the names of the doctors who have lost their lives in the battle against Covid-19. 

He stressed that doctors fight for the life of each one of their patients, sparing no effort, and that even before the epidemic they risked their lives to save others. Doctors are not fighting against the pandemic but for our health, he adds.
