More than 1,000 Covid cases are reported daily in the country, chief state health inspector Associate Professor Angel Kunchev, has warned. He will therefore offer that the authorities introduce measures under a new pandemic plan. The measures include wearing of masks and limiting gatherings of many people in one place. The measures are expected to enter into force on July 18, Prof. Kunchev said.
"We are at the beginning of a wave, but the virus spreads quite quickly and we must be ready for any situation," Kunchev added. According to him, the number of patients has been growing, but there are not many patients in hospitals.
If the virus continued to progress as a relatively mild disease, the consequences would not be severe, the expert adds.
