There are a lot of Czech tourists in the winter resorts in Bulgaria. One of them is Pavel Novak, a journalist from the Czech National Radio who is in this country to give coverage to the safety measures at Bulgaria’s winter resorts.

According to Pavel Novak many of his fellow countrymen on holiday in Bulgaria are not informed of the new requirements of the health authorities in the Czech Republic. That is why he called on Czech citizens in this country via the news on the Bulgarian National Radio:

“As of midnight on 5 February arrivals from Bulgaria need to fill out and sent an electronic Public Health Passenger Locator Form in advance, as well as to present a PCR or antigen test, performed no later than 24 hours prior to arrival.” Until now, the requirement was for 72 hours.
