March 3 holds a special place in the hearts of all true Bulgarians!

There are 452 classes in the country that are in quarantine by order of the Minister of Education. This is less than 1% of all classes in the country. Two more municipalities have introduced a rotation principle for students from 5th to 12th grade - Gabrovo and Tryavna.

The number of quarantined students has quadrupled since the beginning of the school year. This was announced by the Minister of Education Nikolay Denkov. According to him, the increase in cases is smooth and no additional measures are needed. Currently, 4 schools are entirely on a rotating basis precisely because of infected children.

The most important result of the national census will be the number of the population, and certainly what we will see is a new correction downward due to the migration processes, Adrian Nikolov from the Institute for Market Economy told BNR.

According to him, the big risk is very low confidence in the census, which will mar the data from the survey.
