There is no increase in the incidence of Covid-19 by more than 10%, which does not require a change in the anti-epidemic measures, said the director of Sofia's emergency hospital Pirogov, Prof. Dr. Asen Baltov. However, the control over their observance will be increased. 

This became clear after a meeting of the directors of Sofia-based hospitals with Health Minister Kostadin Angelov due to the return of the capital city in the red zone by the number of people infected with Covid-19.

Some 280 vaccination points will be created throughout the country, which will be visible on a special platform, Health Minister Kostadin Angelov announced today in Parliament.
