Since the beginning of the school year, the number of quarantined teachers and students has doubled, Bulgaria’s caretaker Minister of Education and Science Proffessor Nikolay Denkov said in an interview for the Bulgarian National Television. The town of Gabrovo is in the most critical situation, because students in grade 5, 6, 9, 10 and 11 have switched today to distance learning for a period of one week.
515 school classes and 24 kindergarten classes in Bulgaria switched to online learning. The situation in the districts of Kyustendil, Yambol, Vidin and Montana is also critical.
Minister Denkov called on Bulgarians to observe the general anti-epidemic measures, because in places designated as Covid-19 red zones, where coronavirus incidence exceeds 500 new cases per 100,000 people, almost 50% of the students are shifting to online learning.
