There are 1,232 active cases of Covid-19 in Bulgaria. 3 people, inclding a forty three-year-old female doctor working at the intensive-care unit of the hospital in Sleven, died in the past 24 hours. Thus, the total Covid-19 death tool rose to 69 people. 287 patients recovered from Covid-19.

According to the international expert community, the significant coronavirus activity will continue between 18 and 24 months. That is why each country has to find a balance between anti-epidemic measures and the restoration of economic and public life. Bulgaria will analyze the situation and will gradually ease the restrictive measures and activities.

Following today’s decision of Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov, the National Crisis Headquarters ceases its regular daily briefings. Information about the Covid-19 situation in this country will be provided via summaries.
