The epidemic emergency situation (which is due to expire on June 14) will be extended until the end of June, Bulgaria’s Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said at an extraordinary briefing at the Council of Ministers on June 10.

He said that there was an increase in the number of coronavirus cases, mainly in the areas of Dospat, Sarnitsa, the village of Yasenets. The clusters have been contained, without becoming necessary to introduce lockdowns in the towns, without causing panic and fear. That is how we should go on – with discipline, physical distancing and disinfection. Nothing positive has happened, he added. Nothing different from a month ago. The pandemic is growing. The good news is that the recoveries are increasing in the conditions of almost normal way of life of culture, economy, business and everything else, the PM said.

Borissov said that a formal order extending the epidemic emergency would be issued by the end of the day.
