There should be no concession of the measures for the holidays, and even if they may be extended until January 7.

The opinion of the Medical Union on the matching of antigen tests with PCRs is important, said Health Minister Prof. Kostadin Angelov, adding that the tests purchased by the state will be distributed throughout the country and will be free for Bulgarian citizens.

The conversations between the BMA, the Ministry of Health and the Health Insurance Fund continue, and by the end of the year the annex to the framework agreement, which regulates the work between the professional organization and the NHIF, will be signed, it was clarified in the briefing.
