Borisov is worried that the new variants of the coronavirus are much more contagious and attack younger people as well. The additional measures that the regional task forces will implement locally in the red areas of the country with high COVID-19 morbidity will result in the normalization of the situation, Borissov is convinced, he again proudly reminded of the lenient anti-epidemic in Bulgaria in comparison with the other countries.
