Nearly 4% of Bulgaria’s population, or approximately 280,000 people have already met with the novel coronavirus, the head of the Pediatric Clinic at the Hospital of Infectious Diseases in Sofia Associate Professor Atanas Mangarov said. According to the expert, there won’t be a second or a third wave of Covid-19. If the coronavirus does not disappear completely, we may witness separate cases in the cold months, Associate Professor Mangarov commented. He said he was happy with the end of the briefings of the National Coronavirus Headquarters, because in his view, no information concerning the wide audience was shared there.
