The Covid-19 epidemic in Bulgaria is subsiding, but the circulation of seasonal viruses is about to begin, Professor Todor Kantardzhiev, Director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, warned. We have collected enough information about the coronavirus in 9 months. There is no room for excessive tension. We cannot leave children without education and people without jobs because of this pandemic, Professor Kantardzhiev underlined. 

The hospitals are now providing better treatment of the novel coronavirus. Bulgaria is expecting the delivery of American rapid antibody tests whose results are very promising, Todor Kantardzhiev said. In his view, the Covid-19 epidemic has subsided in recent days and the higher number of fatalities is typical for this period.
