PM Borissov: Bulgaria has 32.8% decrease in new Covid-19 cases

According to data from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control., there was a 32.8% decrease in the number of new Covid-19 cases in Bulgaria compared to the past two weeks, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said in a post on Facebook on August 19,

During the same period, Croatia had an increase in the number of infected of 181%, France had 106%, the Netherlands 46% and Greece 51%.

As the pandemic grows around the world, Bulgaria is one of the few countries that manages it properly, the PM wrote. We were the first to introduce restrictive measures. They were flexible and thus the economy continued to work, he said.

We reorganised our industry, stocked up on protective equipment and medicines. We guaranteed that the hospitals would stand the pressure.

At the same time, thanks to its prudent financial policy, the state continues to allocate funds for socio-economic measures in response to the crisis, he said.

At a time when global economies are reporting record declines, we are supporting industry, the public, we are increasing incomes and building across the country. And all this – without making a loan, he added.
