The Ministry of Health is working on a comprehensive plan for countering the next wave of Covid-19, Minister of Health Stoycho Katsarov announced at a briefing.

The plan will include investments in the system, indicators showing when and what anti-epidemic measures shall be put in place when certain parameters are reached, as well as directions in the work and interaction between emergency medical care and outpatient and hospital care. The aim is not to repeat the mistakes made so far in the management of the corona crisis. The plan is expected to be presented next week.
