The gathering of many people during the transmission of the election protocols will not lead to a new peak in the incidence of coronavirus in the country, said for BNT Dr. Nikolay Branzalov, Deputy Chairman of the Bulgarian Medical Union. 

At the moment there is no increase in the number of patients and it is even slightly decreasing, he said. 
The doctor confirmed that all anti-epidemic measures were observed during the elections. In order to avoid crowding in the future, Dr. Nikolay Branzalov recommends the introduction of electronic voting, because it is accurate and objective.
