The new outbreaks of coronavirus in Bulgaria can be curbed without resorting to extreme measures such as imposing full quarantine and setting up entry and exit checkpoints, Bulgaria's Chief State Inspector Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev told Nova TV channel. Most of the newly infected persons for the past day are from the new hotspots - in Sarnitsa, Samokov and Sliven.
