Doctors have banned Bulgaria's outgoing Prime Minister, Boyko Borisov, from watching TV in the next 24 hours to prevent him from worrying too much.

The information was reported by the PIK news agency, citing their insider source from the government hospital where Borisov has been listed Monday afternoon with hypertension.

Doctors further told PIK his condition was stable, but he needed full rest to recover. He can also have visitors, however, they are allowed to see him only upon his permission.
