The Ministry of Social Affairs has been planning a new measure in the coronavirus crisis - to provide assistance of about 12 euros per day directly to workers who have lost their jobs because of closed businesses, Minister of Social Affairs Denitsa Sacheva has told BNT.

Since October 29 in this situation have been discos, nightclubs, private schools for children's training. The state will continue to invest in healthcare and is already thinking about supporting doctors from pre-hospital care and general practitioners, Minister Sacheva said. The measure is being developed with the help of the "Human Resources Development" OP.
