In just one day, over 600 volunteers donated blood for the victims in the Republic of North Macedonia, who are being treated in Bulgaria. This is shown by the data for Tuesday.


All blood centers report that the wave of empathy does not subside even at this moment.

Meanwhile, the three medical institutions that have taken care of the patients from the Republic of North Macedonia report that there is no significant change in their general condition.

A total of 9 people are admitted to the capital's Pirogov emergency hospital, two of whom have been extubated and one is on an oxygen mask. The remaining patients are on mechanical ventilation. 

The condition of the remaining six patients, who are being treated in hospitals in Varna and Plovdiv, remains serious but stable.
