“The Covid-19 curve cannot be expected to sharpen in summer,” said Prof. Dr. Todor Kantardzhiev, director of the National Centre of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases. However he stressed that the danger remains and called for distancing, disinfection and discipline, even though the measures are gradually being relaxed.
