The cost of rapid antigen tests for visitors of restaurants should be covered by the state, the caretaker government proposed at a working meeting of the tourism branch with the ministers of health and tourism and the State Health Inspector Angel Kunchev. The Association of Establishments also announced that the sites will operate without restrictions if their customers presented a vaccination certificate, an official document for overcome Covid-19, PCR-test or rapid antigen test. The owners of restaurants insist that results of antigen tests are also recognized. They want these conditions to apply to the red and dark red Covid zones, and no restrictions to be introduced in the areas of the green zone.

Changes in this direction are expected to be published in a few weeks, reporter Natalia Ganchovska informed.
