A man with a positive coronavirus test travelled from France to Kalotina border checkpoint on the Bulgarian border on a bus full of passengers, bTV reports, and it was only in Bulgaria that it was ascertained he was infected.

The bus started out from Rennes in France for Bulgaria. The passenger who boarded the bus in Paris, produced a PCR test, but the document was in French and the drivers could not read French. So, the passenger travelled on the bus full of passengers across France, Germany, Austria, Hungary and Serbia. It was only in Kalotina that health inspectors ascertained that the man’s PCR test result was positive and decided to leave him on the back seat of the vehicle but the other passengers forced him off the bus.
