The coronavirus epidemic is about to end and soon we will return completely to our normal rhythm of life, the Chief of the Pediatric Clinic at the Hospital of Infectious Diseases in Sofia Associate Professor Atanas Mangarov told the Bulgarian National Radio. In my view, there will be no second wave of Covid-19, or if there is such, it will not be the same as the first one, Atanas Mangarov said further. Mangarov said that he did not expect the epidemic situation to change in the autumn and the winter. Let us not forget that we are talking about infected, not ill people, because the number of ill people is very low, Associate Professor Atanas Mangarov went on to say. The decision of the Bulgarian authorities to open the kindergartens is right, Atanas Mangarov noted.
