The first stage is – a 50% intensive care bed occupancy rate, (the measures are soft), the second stage – a60% intensive care bed occupancy rate, (measures are put in place but all businesses and schools will remain open), the third stage – a70% intensive care bed occupancy rate (the first restrictive but softer measures will be applied, but 1st to 4th grade children will have in-person classes), the fourth stage – a80% intensive care bed occupancy rate (symmetrical closure of businesses, with the exception of groceries and pharmacies). At this point the Northern central district of Bulgaria is in danger of entering stage 4, Kiril Petkov added.
