All Bulgarians must wear face-protection mask at indoor or outdoor public places, this country’s Minister of Health Kiril Ananiev has ordered. The control of the new measure is assigned to the Minister of Interior, the district governors and directly to the Police. The new regulation reads that this measure is taken to limit the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic amidst severe emergency situation related to public health nationally and globally.
