The Covid-19 self-isolation period can be reduced from 10 to 7 days, Bulgaria’s chief state health inspector, Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev, told a briefing in front of the Ministry of Health on August 16.

He specified that the period of quarantine of contacts of people with confirmed Covid-19 infection will be reduced from 7 to 5 days, and persons who are within 3 months after receiving a full vaccination course or booster dose, as well as those who were ill and recovered within this period, will not have to be quarantined at all.

The chief state health inspector also said that these three measures are different from the previous ones and are a first step in terms of gradually loosening the measures against the coronavirus. These measures come into force on Thursday, 18 August, and the order for them will be issued tomorrow. The requirement for compulsory wearing of masks in public transport, medical facilities, pharmacies and institutions that provide social services remains in place until at least 25 August.
