More than 300,000 people in Bulgaria have already encountered the coronavirus. To reach a level where we can expect this epidemic to fade away, people who had been infected with the virus must be over 70 percent of the country's population, which makes about four million people. This opinion was expressed by Assoc. Prof. Atanas Mangurov, Head of the Children's Clinic at the Infectious Diseases Hospital in Sofia in an interview with BNR.
