Bulgaria has not reached the peak of the coronavirus infection yet. Serious tests at critical places are yet to be done. I deeply hope that we will not reach high levels of infection, but it depends on all of us, this country’s Minister of Health Kiril Ananiev said. Minister Ananiev refused to comment the indictment against the Chairperson of the Bulgarian Pharmaceutical Union Professor Asena Stoimenova by the Prosecutor’s Office. She was accused of causing panic among the public following interviews for the Bulgarian National Radio and BNT where she warned that the observed practice of people hoarding medicines could lead to a shortage of medicines for those in need amid the state of emergency.
