Chief Health Inspector Angel Kunchev has said that the completed examination of more than 1000 police officers in Bulgaria shows that there is still no active circulation of the virus in the country. This means that the epidemic is under control and if measures continued, there is a chance that the intensity of the spread will remain at very low levels. According to Kunchev, it is still too early to rely on any mass immunity and it is too early to reduce the weight of measures taken for physical distance.
