If no new coronavirus variants occur in this country, we will have a trouble-free summer, mathematician Lachezar Tomov said for Horizont channel of the Bulgarian National Radio.

If the number new Covid-19 cases does not increase after the proms, this would mean that a lot of people have already had Covid-19. "We can easily multiply the official figures by 6, or even 7, which makes 2,500,000 people who have had the novel coronavirus. Moreover, 600,000 people have already received their second vaccine dose," added Lachezar Tomov.

The mathematician expressed concern that 60% of Bulgarians refuse to receive Covid-19 vaccines, which is the highest rate in Europe.
