“Its characteristics are not yet clear,” explained the health inspector.

“We are aware that the main reason for the higher number of new cases in our country is the British version of the virus. We are also aware of something else, followed by the South African and Brazilian versions. There are extremely unpleasant reports of the Nigerian version of COVID-19. That is, what are its characteristics and being afraid. When someone accuses us of creating fear and psychosis, let them realize what it means to be silent and not tell the truth when it is most needed. ” This was stated by the adjunct professor Angel Kunchev during the periodic briefing of the health authorities on the situation of the coronavirus in the country.

LIVE: There is a gradual increase in the incidence of COVID-19

According to him, the 14-day morbidity has reached 285 per 100,000, which places us in 18th place in the EU and 5th in the Balkan Peninsula. To be a little clearer, I allowed myself to interpolate the data for the most affected country, the Czech Republic. If we had their morbidity, today we should have 12,015 new cases. Is it possible for this to happen? Yes absolutely. Whether we will reach such peaks in the third wave is completely up to each of us, “explained the chief state health inspector.

Regarding the data in the country, the great difference between morbidity in the different regions is impressive, which requires a regional approach, he added. “The incidence in Kyustendil is 487 per 100,000 and in Targovishte 26 per 100,000. Today, the Burgas headquarters has decided to cancel the planned admission to hospitals. Fully justified decision, we support it. I would recommend to the Kyustendil headquarters, Vratsa, Pleven and the city of Sofia should also consider such action. It does not necessarily apply to all medical institutions in the given cities, but only to the busiest, “Kunchev added.
