"10 days is not a short time, but we don't know if it would be enough. The term could be extended." This is what Bulgaria’s Chief State Health Inspector Angel Kunchev has told the Bulgarian National Radio, speaking about the new restrictions coming into force on March 22 due to the high growth in the number of Covid-19 cases. He said it was very difficult to find a good balance between protecting health and the economy.
Kunchev pointed out that pressure on hospitals continued to grow. So far, no cases of the South African strain have been detected, but there are cases in Europe and the Balkans. More than 580,000 doses of vaccines are expected in April and even more in May, it was reported.
