The Prime Minister Boyko Borissov has issued an order that a specialized point for diagnosing and directing patients to appropriate medical care should be placed in front of each public or private hospital in Bulgaria. You use everything - firefighters, police, clothes, Borissov said at an online meeting with members of the government, BTA reported.

It is important for citizens to know that if they have been in contact with people with Covid-19, they should isolate themselves immediately. A number of state institutions have hotel facilities and sanatoriums, which can also be used to accommodate patients and reduce the pressure on hospitals. According to the Prime Minister, it is extremely important to have flexibility and to continue carrying out the necessary operations.
Life must go on, said Borissov, who is convinced that there will be vaccines against the coronavirus by April.
