"There is some curbing of the number of deaths, but the situation is too frail for lifting the measures.” This was what Minister of Social Affairs Denitsa Sacheva has told Nova TV. She added that the opinion of most cabinet members was for gradual easing of measures and not for full opening after December 21. Decision will be made no later than Thursday.

Minister Sacheva announced that she herself will be vaccinated against Covid-19. She had hesitations about these vaccines, but after learning the facts, she changed her mind.
