With a decision of the Council of Ministers from today, the emergency epidemic situation in the country is extended until June 30, 2020. According to the previous decision, it should have ended on June 14.  The Council of Ministers notes that the measures taken by the state have yielded good results. The decision states that the prolongation of the emergency epidemic situation will help, by applying temporary anti-epidemic measures, including a ban on entry into the country and quarantine of persons who have entered Bulgaria from countries with high incidence of Covid-19 and significant epidemic spread, to delay and limit the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic in Bulgaria.
