Bulgaria's National Centre for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases has reported a decline in the incidence of Covid-19 in the country. On a 14-day basis, it is 699 infected per 100,000 people. For the past week from November 8 to 14 the new cases in the country are 9.8%, or 23,313. 

As of November 14, the average mortality rate is 32 people per 100,000 population, or 5.8% of those infected. At the beginning of November, this indicator was 7.6%.
Expecting the government to prolong the emergency epidemic situation, the Bulgarian Association of Restaurants and the Association of Restaurants in Bulgaria asked in a letter from the future government and the current official support retroactively - from the introduction of the "green certificate" for Covid-19 on November 1.
