Walking the streets in good weather on weekends does not affect the spread of COVID-19 in Bulgaria. This is indicated by data from the national operational headquarters for the number of infected and the tests carried out.
Now we are grateful for these walks a week ago, the chief of staff, Gen, announced late last week. Ventsislav Mutafchiiski, after 48 and 40 newly discovered coronavirus infections were recorded on two consecutive days, respectively. As he spoke, he also spoke of a grim record and of letting go of the epidemic.
Mutafchiiski’s speech was before the Easter holidays, but after Tsvetnitsa and the good weather on the weekend of April 4-5.
However, the highest number of infected is due to most of the tests carried out in the last week, according to the statistics of the headquarters of operations. As of April 17, it was announced that 26,417 tests had been performed and 878 had been infected, a 24-hour check showed. This means that every 30 tests revealed a new infection, and the proportion of patients found was 3.3% of the tests performed.
The indicators are exactly the same a week before. On April 10, 18,502 tests were announced and 624 were infected with a coronavirus. Again, the proportion of patients is 3.3% of the tests performed. The same is true of the data from April 5, when 531 infected coronaviruses were detected by 15,899 tests.
Strenuous walks and contacts will be rewarded in a week, the gene said Monday. Mutafchiski asked the question “24 hours” why the previous days of more leaving the lychee houses in the statistics. He then emphasized that Tsvetnitsa brought three consecutive days with more than 40 newly discovered virus carriers. However, the proportion of patients established as of April 5, before the walks and the good weather, is the same as that of April 10 and 17, which is already after the street walks.
In any case, leaving some of the people at Easter for Sofia will result in an increase in infected people, a virus can appear in new places and transmission of the infection to Sofia may be possible, Mutafchiiski explained. He emphasized that with 534 cases on Monday morning, the capital remains the largest home.
Maintaining the 3.3% proportion detected by the infected coronavirus with respect to the tests carried out, the chief of the operational staff explained that, unlike other countries in Europe, Bulgaria still has the capacity to carry out tests and patients without symptoms, and control the epidemiological chain. An example was given of the case of a man in one of the Roma Roma neighborhoods who managed to infect his family, but also caused a second house because he also lived there.
However, the operational headquarters did not answer the question “24 hours” what is the infection rate in Bulgaria. It shows a virus carrier how many people manage to infect him. At a rate of more than 1 epidemic it is growing, and days ago Germany announced that it had managed to reduce it to 0.75 and practically stop the epidemic.
The Bulgarian health system has managed to increase its ability to absorb COVID-19 patients 10 times, Mutafchiiski guarantees.
31 were newly infected Monday morning and the total number is now 915, said the head of the National Operations Headquarters. This is a 3.2% increase in new cases.
