The municipal hospital in Razlog, Blagoevgrad region, cannot accept more patients with complications from Covid-19. There is no intensive care unit in the medical institution. "We have 40 Covid beds and they are occupied. We can not have more because there are not enough medics. There are beds, but no staff, that's the most important thing. From a critical situation it has been turning into a real crisis that we cannot control ", Dr. Bozhidar Velev, head of the hospital in Razlog says, the correspondent of BNR in Blagoevgrad Keti Trencheva has reported.
