In the currently ongoing Covid-19 wave, the damage caused to the patients' lungs by the virus is much more severe. This was stated to BNR by Assoc. Prof. Marin Penkov, Head of the Imaging Department at the St. Ivan Rilski Hospital in Sofia.

It is not clear whether the reason for this is the fact that those infected with coronavirus seek medical help at a later stage of the disease, or the virus has become more aggressive and descends faster into the lungs.

Assoc. Prof. Marin Penkov urged people to seek medical help in a timely manner if necessary.
