The threshold of Sofia has been exceeded if in 14 days there are more than 25 patients per 100,000 inhabitants, explained the professor.
Unfortunately, today the number of people infected with the new virus is growing, we were among the countries that are doing well and we have been going up for some time. It is a bad sign that last week the data for the country was that 10 people infected with the coronavirus transmitted it to 7 people, and this – 10 people infected 11. I expect more infections by respiratory viruses, which increase with the cold, said Nova . Television professor Todor Kantardzhiev, director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases and member of the COVID operational headquarters. His experience shows that in autumn the number of patients with respiratory syncytial virus becomes more frequent, which is severe mainly in childhood. Since October, it has been monitored for influenza viruses.
Rapid antigenic viruses should be used to distinguish, for example, between influenza and novel coronavirus infection. They are available and it is an initiative of GPs to have them at their disposal, believes Professor Kantardzhiev.
The microbiologist thinks that in our climate, wearing masks outdoors would not do much. But the obligation to cover your face and nose should remain inside.
Headquarters recommends that district headquarters have a say in specific actions on the ground, depending on the situation.
Evaluation criteria and guidelines are provided, but decisions will be made at the district level.
The threshold for Sofia has been crossed if there are more than 25 patients per 100,000 inhabitants in 14 days, explained the professor. The nSchools are expected to be closed if people follow the necessary measures, the teacher said.
