There are more and more positive results, for me, this is very worrying. The restrictions are not followed. Applying masks is desirable. We have a joke that the Bulgarian will meet the fourth covid wave with a mask, which he bought for the first one. This was stated to BNT by the general practitioner Dr. Gergana Nikolova, who is also a member of the Management Board of the Bulgarian Medical Union.
Dr. Nikolova called on teachers to get vaccinated. This wave is of patients who have not been vaccinated, she said.
Among the newly infected are not only people who have been at sea, Nikolova commented.
An attempt is being made to introduce a system with a certain number of tests, but this should have happened actively in the summer, when there were not so many newly infected, said Dr. Nikolova.
From July 1, we haven’t received BGN 1,000, but BGN 250, this was decided with the methodology that was submitted. We insist on order and rules to be followed. Clarity - what and how will be done with the treatment of people placed under home supervision, said Dr. Nikolova about the funds that first-line medical personnel receive as a bonus for the fight against the coronavirus.
She commented that there is no European country in which GPs make home visits to patients with covid. According to her, there are no necessary conditions for this to become a fact.
