"The green certificate will be needed for another month or so," Prof. Radka Argirova, adviser to the prime minister over Covid-19, has told Nova TV. According to her, the peak of the fifth wave will be reached by February 8-10.

"When the number of infected starts to decrease, the incidence will decrease too, together with the indicator by which we decide what to do - the number of occupied intensive care beds," Prof. Radka Argirova said. When the number of patients in intensive care drops to 100-130, the green certificate will be lifted, she added. According to her, this plan has already been coordinated with Prime Minister Kiril Petkov.
