The protest of Medics from Pirogov Hospital for Emergency Medicine against the dismissal of the hospital’s former director Professor Assen Baltov continues. The medics demanded the resignation of this country’s caretaker Minister of Health Stoycho Katsarov. They temporarily blocked a key boulevard in Sofia. The protesters also call for the introduction of a clinical pathway for the treatment of long-term effects of Covid-19.

 As of July 21, the medics will no longer block boulevards and intersections in Bulgaria’s capital city. According to a survey conducted by the Bulgarian Medical Association, 70% of the Bulgarian medics support the protest of their colleagues from Pirogov hospital.
