Covid-19 cases are already chasing 1,100 people after a new record of 66 new infections per day was reported Thursday morning, and 16 new cases were reported during the day. Therefore, their total number is already 1097 people.
During the day on Thursday, the deaths increased by two more to 52. This is a 71-year-old man from Alexandrovska Hospital who suffered from acute kidney failure, ischemic heart disease and bilateral pneumonia. The patient was under ventilation. At Pirogov, a woman died at the age of 85. The patient suffered from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and diabetes and had pneumonia.
Three other people died last day: an 87-year-old woman at the Military Medical Academy, a 53-year-old man in Smolyan and a 71-year-old woman in Pirogov.
Currently, 270 people are admitted to the hospital for treatment, and 37 people are in serious condition in intensive care units and wards.
The most affected area of the coronavirus continues to be Sofia with 594 cases, followed by Pleven – 67, Plovdiv – 42 and Vidin – 40.
The number of infected doctors is increasing.
The number of infected medical personnel has increased alarmingly in recent days. On Thursday, the infected doctors reached 95 people, after 8 new cases were confirmed among Vidin hospital staff. Therefore, half of the 16 cases recorded for the day are precisely from the hospital in Vidin, from where it appeared that the virus had also been transferred to a nursing home in a nearby town.
For comparison, just a week ago, the infected medical personnel in the country was 48 people.
In the morning, 12 new cases of infected medical personnel were reported from various hospitals in the country. Of these, 2 were cases in Pirogov, 1 in Ivan Rilski, 1 in Sofiamed, 1 in the Military Medical Academy, 2 in Sliven and 4 in Veliko Turnovo.
Veliko Tarnovo’s four doctors who were diagnosed with Covid-19 disease belong to the intensive care unit of the regional hospital. The room is closed and doctors are mildly symptomatic of home treatment, the BNR reported.
Positive samples were given by three nurses and a rescuer at the Veliko Turnovo hospital. They were contacted by a 74-year-old patient who died of Covid-19 on Good Friday.
“The department continues to specialize in treating serious cases of illness, without problems with the shortage of personnel, without the risk of hospital infection”said Dr. Stefan Filev, executive director of the hospital.
In the morning, the state’s chief health inspector, Dr. Angel Kunchev, commented that most of the cases were not in the wards where the patients were sick, but in others. This shows that colleagues underestimate the danger, he said. However, the case in Veliko Turnovo does not fall under this heading.
Eight are the new cases of infected personnel in the Vidin hospital, where in the morning it was clear that there were 17 infected doctors. Some hospital nurses say the situation was due to a lack of protective clothing, but hospital management says everything needs to be made sure. According to the doctors, however, the protective equipment came too late when it was already infected.
Trials in Roma neighborhoods continue
The director of RZI-Sofia, Dr. Dancho Penchev, announced that the tests of residents in the two Roma neighborhoods in Sofia, Faculty and Filipovtsi, are still underway, and until now the measures cannot be discussed. Another 700 tests have been prepared for the Faculty. People will be randomly evaluated. Family outbreaks are sought.
Yesterday 200 samples were taken at Filipovtsi as “definitely positive”.
In response to residents’ displeasure, the Chief of the General Staff of National Operations, Gen. Ventsislav Mutafchiiski said: “Being negatively screened doesn’t mean you get an entry and exit visa for anyone to go to. I think there is an understanding about it.”
The peak will be in the coming days.
We are currently on the rise and will reach the peak of infection in the coming days, Professor Todor Kantardzhiev, director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases (NCPDB), told BNT earlier.
“Our country is doing very well so far and the reasons are several. First, it is a political decision, because the measures taken are decisions of the Council of Ministers. The Operations Headquarters, which is a small group of specialists, discusses these measures on a daily basis. Almost every day that we have meetings with members of the Council of Ministers, we see what is happening in neighboring countries and other European countries. The measures we took and which were not good because there was no curfew or prohibition of get out of the houses, they were taken on time “he said.
According to him, this is the reason why our country currently suffers the least infected and the least deaths.
“Our concerns, which we conveyed to political leaders, were related to the fact that if people were to meet and celebrate Tsvetnitsa and Easter together, it would become dangerous. A small percentage of Bulgarians found a way to get out of Sofia and leave get family together “Kantardzhiev said.
According to him, in our country the majority of people are disciplined and follow the measures.
“The church is not a reason to increase the number of infected people. If there is one, it will be due to non-compliance”he said.
The situation worldwide is still alarming.
