Bulgaria’s society has no desire to see anti-epidemic measures tightened further, the conclusion of the 11th phone survey of Gallup International conducted among 800 Bulgarians reads. The number of opinions against wearing face masks has not increased either, sociologist Parvan Simeonov from Gallup International said for BNR.  

The number of extreme opinions-of people who believe in conspiracy theories and those who are very worried about the pandemic has increased, the survey further reads. Although moderate opinions are still prevalent, the number of people voicing moderate opinion has decreased recently. According to the respondents, the cabinet addresses the coronavirus pandemic better than the issues in other sectors.
