We do not expect a new COVID wave in the fall, but we expect a high incidence of other respiratory viruses and infections.

This was said in the morning block of Nova Television by the pulmonologist and specialist in internal medicine Dr. Sofia Angelova.

The coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19) 31595

"As of April 1, PCR tests have been transferred to pulmonologists.

The flow will be mixed with acute respiratory infections '', the specialist predicts. 

When people start to get sick, acute conditions need to be referred by a GP to a specialist, and we are few.

We believe that there will be chaos in the fall, when the moment of high morbidity comes, said Dr. Angelova.

According to her, there are currently about 25 pulmonologists in Sofia, and in small settlements there are cases in which 1 pulmonologist serves the entire region. 

80 newly infected and none died with COVID-19 in the last 24 hours

"Our offices have full schedules for the next two weeks due to the post-COVID syndrome," said the specialist. 

Dr. Angelova explained that the symptoms of post-COVID syndrome drain and then return, so you need to see a specialist. 

Do not worry people and be patient with us.

The good thing is that these symptoms disappear over time, added Dr. Angelova and explained that exercise and active lifestyle help to overcome this syndrome faster.
