Deyan Kovachev from Plovdiv has lived and worked in Great Britain for several years. According to him, the current panic is largely due to the ill-considered announcement by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson about the emergence of the new virus, writes marica.bg.
Deyan is the son of associate professor Vasko Kovachev, one of the founders of Plovdiv Technical University. Assistant Professor Kovachev died of coronavirus on November 13.
Deyan returns for his funeral and stays here for about a week, also contracting a coronavirus.
“The day I returned to the UK, I was surprised and they held me for two weeks. The virus is very nasty, but it’s good that I had no complications. The doctors said that I now have to have immunity for at least 5-6 months.” says Deyan Kovachev.
In the 40 days since his father’s death, he had to fly from London last night. Ryanair called him to tell him that the reservation had been canceled.
“The situation is calm. I live in Essex, very close to London. Last Wednesday they introduced level 3 for contagion, and since Sunday level 4, the highest.
Boris Johnson had the folly to brag to the world that he had a new mutation that was more contagious but not more deadly. The new vaccine also worked against this mutation, “says Deyan Kovachev.
He believes that after Johnson was “kicked out” on Saturday, France and Germany have apparently decided to “show him who drives the train in Europe.”

His reaction is partly due to the fierce ongoing Brexit controversy, which has completely stalled.
“All this action is political revenge for Brexit.” Our politicians rushed in and on Sunday night the government, instead of drinking brandy, decided to suspend flights, “Kovachev said.
Follow the airport information for Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and the Baltic countries; flights to and from there have not been canceled today.
They are canceled for Germany, France, Italy, Bulgaria, Turkey.
“The bad thing is that thousands of Bulgarians suffer from this decision and will not be able to return to their families at Christmas. Otherwise life here is quiet. People are disciplined and follow all measures against the coronavirus.
As of yesterday, all stores were closed, except supermarkets, grocery stores and banks. The same thing happened during the quarantine in March. I’ve been working remotely from the apartment for a long time, “he said.
In Great Britain, you constantly follow the Bulgarian news. According to him, the new mutation cannot surprise us.
“Associate professors and Bulgarian professors say the same thing. They say that at the moment the coronavirus in Bulgaria is not the one in March. Why is everyone surprised by the news of the new mutation?” Asks the resident of Plovdiv in the county from Essex.
Last week, for the third time, he received official state assistance under the self-insurance program. It is paid quarterly based on tax returns filed during the last three years.
“I only have one statement and that’s why my help is low. They paid me 1,300 pounds sterling. Other Bulgarians with high incomes charge between £ 5,500 and £ 6,000 per person per quarter. The program for now is until March 2021, ”said the Bulgarian.
According to him, the greatest curiosity is that in Bulgaria now the sick are more per capita than on the island.
“Now I looked at the statistics: yesterday in the UK there was a peak of 35,000 patients out of a population of 65 million. This equates to 3,500 in Bulgaria. And the previous week there were about 20,000 patients a day,” says Kovachev.
