The epidemic is almost under control, there is little left. But there is a danger of letting things out of control. There is a danger if the population does not understand that the coronavirus has not gone away and that discipline must be observed. We must be vigilant because most cases are from certain hotspots, said Dr. Nikolay Branzalov, Deputy Chairman of the Bulgarian Medical Union. 

According to Branzalov, every patient who needs to be admitted to hospital must first be tested for Covid-19. Otherwise, there is a risk that medical facilities will become hotspots of the infection.
