The rapid identification of infected persons will slow down the spread of the coronavirus, Assoc. Prof. Lyubomir Kirov, chairman of the National Association of General Practitioners, told the BNR. Kirov called on people not to resort to "amateur activities, because lately improper self-medication has become more dangerous than the virus itself. Everyone feels anxiety and fear, but this should not encourage people to resort to self-treatment," said the associate professor.

"We will be able to help hospitals, when we are most effective and we have the opportunity to quickly identify, isolate and control a much larger number of patients who are infected", the expert also said.
