At the current new peak of the coronavirus, efforts are focused on monitoring the implementation of existing precautions. Control will be tightened, but the introduction of new restrictions is not planned, Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev explained for NOVA.
There has been a significant change in the situation, with a significant jump of the number of patients in the country compared to the previous two weeks, the Health Minister explained.
In connection with the measures, Prime Minister Borissov announced that no one in the world can say what is right or wrong. The whole world is acting based on the trial-error method, Borissov said, warning the sports minister that the stadiums would be closed if the behavior of the football fans does not change.
