The situation in the multi-profile hospital in Pazardzhik is complicated as all of the Covid beds are occupied. The hospital beds for stroke treatment are also occupied, the director of the health institution Krassimir Temnilov has told BNR correspondent Nevena Petrova.

"The hospital is full, we have no free beds and many of our colleagues are ill," Temnilov said. There are no other options for life-saving treatment for stroke in the district, with the exception of the hospital in Panagyurishte, which is also full.
