Nearly 400 cases of pertussis (whooping cough) have been registered in the country. We are at the beginning of a nationwide epidemic, Chief State Health Inspector Angel Kunchev said for Nova TV. 70 new cases have been registered on Monday and Tuesday alone, Angel Kunchev added.
Angel Kunchev emphasized that the stringent measures from the COVID-19 epidemic, such as mandatory mask-wearing and the closure of restaurants would not be repeated. In his words, many people have mild symptoms or no symptoms at all which helps the spread of the disease.
