At the moment, the national operational headquarters cannot recommend loosening the measures. We are currently on the upward curve of the disease. This was stated in an interview with BNT by the Chief of the national operational headquarters, General. Ventsislav MutafchiiskiVentsislav Metodiev Mutafchiyski is a Bulgarian doctor, officer, major general, professor.
Born on the 20th.

Coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19) 5901
There was non-compliance with the measures around Tsvetnitsa and now we could be bolder to talk about future plans to loosen the measures, but this massive trip out of the capital surprised us. We have explained so many times what a coronavirus is, how dangerous this is, and I was surprised that people did not understand it anyway. There are people who hardly say such a thing, the gene said. Mutafchiyski.
We had incredible happiness for complex reasons of being weakly affected by this epidemic, he added. We were lucky to have a second flu epidemic at the time and we had to take quarantine measures, then for the students, but that played a huge role in the future spread of the infection and allowed medical facilities to prepare, he said. .
When asked about the mass tests, General Mutafchiiski said: “Mass tests in the sense understood by his spectators will not begin, because there is no such thing anywhere in the world.”
When asked about rapid genetic testing. Mutafchiyski said they do not quickly identify the new patients: they are cured or in the middle of the disease and are not suitable.
The staff struggle consisted of constantly explaining and resisting the pressure of economically sound claims from different places that wanted to evaluate Bulgaria with rapid tests at the beginning of the epidemic, which would cost Bulgaria half a billion levs and would show nothing, said the general. . Mutafchiyski.
The chief of operational staff also added that there were hotspots in the country, in northwestern Bulgaria, which became even more critical due to the loss of infected personnel, and said he spoke specifically about Vidin.
According to him, the coronavirus does not have to kill people with chronic diseases. The oldest discharged patient in Bulgaria is 86 years old with many accompanying diseases, he said.
In Bulgaria it is difficult to calculate the coefficient of how many people are infected by a carrier of the virus. The coefficient in Bulgaria is above 3.5, but it does not have much influence on the decisions that are made, the gene said. Mutafchiyski. More important is the capacity of the health centers: it is currently very good, he added.
Gen. Mutafchiyski confirmed that materials from the WHO and the Robert Koch Institute indicate that having antibodies or having the virus does not mean that you cannot replicate it, and that the only alternative is the vaccine.
Asked about infected Chinese citizens in our country, Mutafchiyski said that it is not known that there is a sick Chinese in Bulgaria. More than 100 Chinese citizens have returned to Bulgaria after the Chinese New Year, but they have been quarantined and none are ill.
The fact is, since there is no cure for this virus and no vaccine, we can’t be so naive as to have it dissolve in air on its own, the gene said. Mutafchiyski.
The most serious complication of this disease is when immunity is over-activated and our immunity kills us. As a very new virus, prophylactic taking of anything is not recommended, the Chief of Operations said.
