“There are no discussions of banning unvaccinated people aged over 60 from leaving their homes,” Minister of Labour and Social Policy Galab Donev said for Nova TV, commenting on a statement made by the deputy minister of health that a partial lockdown is possible soon.
In his words the measures introduced are yielding results. “We are finding more and more people without symptoms and the spread of the virus will be limited,” he stated.
Commenting on the calls by businesses for the green certificate mandate to be extended to civil servants, Minister Donev stated that those of them working at counters must present such a document. More than 65% of the people employed within the system of the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy are either vaccinated or have recovered from coronavirus. Employers do not have the right to deduct the money for the tests from the salaries of the employees, Minister Galab Donev said.
