The main building of the Sofia townhall will not be closed because of the municipal councilors infected with Covid-19, Deputy Mayor Doncho Barbalov told the BNR. He assured that the building is disinfected daily every 4 hours. Only the contact persons of the infected councillors will be tested. 

The staff of the kindergartens in Sofia, the Social Patronage and the staff of the medical establishments are tested for Covid-19. In case of the slightest doubt, PCR tests are performed on employees in the public administration, Barbalov explained.
