“Still in the country, fortunately for us, it continues cluster dispersion and establish the disease. This is good, because all anti-epidemic measures can be concentrated there to safely limit infection. We examine contacts to certain established groups and the further we move away from the group nucleus, the fewer patients we detect. Those who are first-line contacts have a fairly high percentage of infected people, and the further we go, the fewer second-line contacts there are. If we continue with this spirit, this offers more possibilities for a more normal way of life in the future, “explained General Mutafchiiski.
However, he pointed out what the new normal is:
“No one talks about losing physical distance. Although there were two infected, we had no habit for this virus. Now even young children know they need to wash their hands and not hug. “

The head of the Military Medical Academy expressed confidence that most of the quarantine conditions goals have been achieved: low morbidity, trained personnel, few deaths.
Regarding transplants, he commented that the decision was difficult because the patients are extremely risky and need additional safety conditions. The general specified that the French and German protocol templates are also used to make Bulgarians.
About Control, the chief of the operational staff emphasized that they are not a fact as of May 6 and that there is no way to return with the introduction of an emergency epidemic.
With regard to the Bulgarians who returned infected with airplanes, he commented that nobody in Bulgaria is obliged to say that he is sick of something, so there is no column “you are sick” in the statements that are completed on arrival at the airports.
“We need a legal interpretation of communicable diseases, we live in a time when society is very sensitive to personal data,” he said, adding that HIV positive people are also under no obligation to report this.
According to him, we are currently actively working on drafting rules for air travel. According to him, to have this type of tourism, there must be clear rules and clear regulations. Until clarified, car tourism remains a priority.
Regarding quarantine measures after trips abroad, Mutafchiiski also said:
“This is not a unilateral process. It is about mutual agreements of countries in the region. Prime Minister Boyko Borissov began talks with statesmen in the region. for the introduction of reciprocal measures, which is the recommendation of the EC until the issuance of common European measures. Evidence cannot replace the most powerful weapon against this epidemic, and these are quarantine measures. The EC is not against the 14-day quarantine. Recommends reciprocal measures. Such conversations should take place between countries with the same measures against the epidemic and the same epidemiological conditions, “Mutafchiiski explained.
When asked about theories that in some cases family members have been told that the case must be recorded as a death caused by COVID-19, he answered:
“I don’t know why you mention it, these are brochures that are distributed to minority groups. First, there are no such requirements for hospitals, absurd, second, there is no such attitude towards the sick.”
When asked if it was not correct for the orders with new measures to be published in the State Gazette, so that the offenders did not say that they did not know about them, the general said that very few people read this newspaper and today it is quite normal to be published on the website of the Ministry of Health.
Regarding the statement by the head of the children’s ward at the Hospital for Infectious Diseases, Associate Professor Atanas Mangarov, that in Bulgaria there are no deaths from coronaviruses, but only from concomitant diseases, he replied:
“Is A trick with the memory of the dead and their loved ones! I express my deepest respect and condolences to the families of the deceased. These people had other diseases, but without encountering the coronavirus, they probably would have lived many more years. “
He invited anyone who doubts how dangerous the disease is to volunteer for three days at the Military Medical Academy to see for themselves how the sick suffer. He didn’t even have to work, just to see how severe and prolonged the illness was.
