Gergana Nikolova

Dr. Gergana Nikolova from the Bulgarian Medical Association (BMA) commented on BNT that the importance of the changes and the significance of preventive check-ups lie not only in prevention but also in the opportunity to increase access to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for the detection of more serious diseases in early stages.

"Currently, the situation is epidemic. Every negative test is questionable in itself." This was said on bTV by Dr. Nedyalko Kalachev, owner of a chain of laboratories.

"We observe people with COVID-19 brought by their relatives, and then they do not appear in the quarantined list at all. Contacts are not isolated, they continue to walk the streets. It is not a betrayal to say who was in contact with you when you are infected". This was stated by Dr. Gergana Nikolova from BMA on Nova TV.

"Masks are like condoms - they are put on because they work"

This was stated to BNT by the general practitioner Gergana Nikolova. The reason for her comment was the increase in coronavirus infections in recent days, and they now reach 10 thousand.

COVID-19 in Bulgaria: Almost 10,000 New Cases in the Last 24 hours

Due to poor vaccination, the number of people infected with COVID-19 is growing, the health system is at its limit and the measures will most likely have to be tightened. Dr. Mimi Vitkova, former Minister of Health, Dr. Gergana Nikolova, general practitioner, member of the Board of MMA, as well as lawyer Valya Gigova united around this opinion.

An endless stream of sick, frightened patients with positive COVID-19 tests, a suffocating health system, overcrowded hospitals and shortage of beds, according to Dr. Gergana Nikolova, such is  the current situation in the medical institutions in the country. 

We currently have only 26% free COVID beds for Sofia. Since vaccines have been produced, from all patients in the capital, only 13 immunized people have been admitted to hospital. This was announced in the morning block of Nova TV by Dr. Gergana Nikolova, a member of the BMA.

"There are more and more positive results, for me this is very worrying. The measures are not observed."

"Applying masks is desirable. We have a joke that the Bulgarian will meet the fourth covid wave with a mask, which he bought for the first one."

There are more and more positive results, for me, this is very worrying. The restrictions are not followed. Applying masks is desirable.

"There is huge interest in vaccination. People come every day who want to be entered on the list", said in the studio of "Hello, Bulgaria" on Nova TV general practitioner Dr. Gergana Nikolova.
