Bulgaria’s hotel sector is ready to provide over 3,000 beds across the country to accommodate quarantined persons, people in self-isolation, relatives of Covid-19 patients and medics seconded to other towns and cities. The topic will be discussed on Monday by representatives of the tourist sector and Bulgaria’s Ministry of Health, BNR reporter Poli Nacheva reports.

This measure will support both the health system and the tourism sector which will receive money from the state in return, Rumen Draganov, Director of the Institute for Analysis and Assessment in Tourism said in an interview for BNR.

“The price for staying in a hotel is four times lower than the hospital rates”, Rumen Draganov pointed out.
