The number of people with severe coronavirus symptoms has increased and the average age of the patients receiving hospital treatment has dropped, Dr. Ivan Poromanski, Director of Pirogov Hospital for Emergency Medicine, said in an interview for Nova TV.

The youngest patient is 18 years old. There are still unoccupied Covid-19 beds in the largest Bulgarian hospital, but there are not enough medics.
