The shortage of human resources and the mistrust of the system remain the biggest problems of Bulgaria’s healthcare, Dr. Maria Pishmisheva and Dr. Gergana Nikolova, who are on the frontline against Covid-19, said for BNR.

Maria Pishmisheva and Gergana Nikolova were awarded the Presidential badge of honor at a ceremony on April 7 (World Health Day). 

Dr. Pishmisheva called on people to help the medics in the fight against Covid-19 by observing the anti-epidemic measures. Gergana Nikolova's appeal was the same: "Take the side of your doctor. Thus, we can defeat the coronavirus disease", added Dr. Gergana Nikolova.
