It carries a mutation that makes the coronavirus more contagious and can help it partially evade immune response. So far, seven tests have shown the presence of the virus in the country - 6 in Sofia and 1 in Kyustendil. 50% rise in the number of patients with Covid-19 was reported in the past week. The 14-day incidence in the country is 57 per 100,000 people.
