The protests against the introduction of some of the anti-epidemic measures continue in some major regional towns in the country.

In Plovdiv, the protesters gathered in front of the regional health inspectorate building to demand in-person school attendance. Dozens of people signed a petition for the return of children to school.

In Shumen almost 150 people protested against the green certificates and broke into a big store without face masks or certificates, in contravention of the order of the minister of health.

Around 40 protesters gathered in the central square in Vidin. The organizers presented a declaration demanding the immediate and unconditional abolition of any kind of “discrimination” by “medical orders” and anti-epidemic measures.
