On a weekly basis, morbidity has increased by 31%.

At the moment, Covid-19 is progressing with pronounced clinical symptoms of the upper respiratory tract, and some patients also develop pneumonia, Prof. Tatyana Chervenkova told bTV.

According to experts, the risk of illness lasting more than four weeks after infection with Omicron is lower, but protection depends on the persons' age and when the vaccine was administered.
