We are still at the beginning of the epidemic, Prof. Kosta Kostov, Coordinator of the Medical Expert Council with the Bulgarian Government, told the Bulgarian National Radio. The expectation is that the COVID -19 infection curve will not be steep. According to the international experience examined so far, the council believes that the virus is more dangerous and deadly than influenza viruses, but the experts are not yet convinced that COVID-19 is more deadly than previous outbreaks of coronaviruses in 2003, 2010 and 2011. Considering the current fatalities rate from COVID-19 in Bulgaria, the experts hope that if all measures are strictly observed, the epidemic will be overcome.
Professor Kostov said that the current movement of the COVID-19 curve gave him hope that there might not be a high mortality peak in Bulgaria.
