The hospital in Isperih is coping better with the third wave of Covid-19, its former director Dr. Abdullah Zargar said in an interview for BNR. The story of the Iranian doctor, who settled in Bulgaria almost 20 years ago, touched the people of Bulgaria. Thousands of patients supported their favorite orthopedist and signed a petition in support of his Bulgarian citizenship. Dr. Abdullah Zargar was granted Bulgarian citizenship in February this year. 

Like other Bulgarian hospitals, the staff shortage remains a major problem in Isperih's hospital. Dr. Zargar hopes that the young doctors will not leave Bulgaria and will go to small towns and villages instead.
