Bulgaria's National Association of General Practitioners has issued an opinion on the procedure for detecting Covid-19 infection. General practitioners suggest that an initial test with an antigen test be performed to prove the presence of the virus, and that a positive result should be a reason for quarantine or hospitalization depending on the severity of the disease. 
Antigen tests should be performed no later than the 4th day after the onset of symptoms, the association suggests.
