Coronavirus infection rate is 2-3 times higher in comparison with the previous days. So far, the infection in Bulgaria has not spread beyond the established outbreaks.

Major General Prof. Dr. Ventsislav Mutafchiiski, Head of the National Task Force against coronavirus, said on May 7 that the healthcare system can still cope with this growing number of cases, but the relaxing of the anti-epidemic measures places exceptional demands on the members of the public, who should behave responsibly and wear masks.

Food shops are one of the places where self-discipline remains of paramount importance.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Angel Kunchev, chief state health inspector, said that there was no way the inspecting authorities to be present everywhere, in 72 thousand sites. So again, we urge people to show responsible behaviour, think about their health and not to expect someone by force to impose compliance with the measures, he said.

Social care homes are among the latest outbreaks of coronavirus. Therefore the staff in the care homes and all residents in them will be tested, he added.

The flights with infected people on board also have their impact on the increasing number of coronavirus cases in Bulgaria. One recent example concerns passengers from the Netherlands. It turns out that some of them took temperature-reducing medicines it order to be able to get through the border checks.

Dr. Dancho Penchev, Director of Sofia regional health inspectorate: Two patients a few days ago identified with 34 degrees body temperature were temporarily isolatedand an hour later their temperature showed an increase, reaching 38 degrees.
