In an interview with Deutsche Welle, Health Minister Venko Filipce announced that they are considering gradually reducing restrictive measures, but when exactly that will happen will be considered next week, when the Commission for Infectious Diseases will summarize the numbers of newly infected and will see the effects of the two previous weekends in quarantine.

We are well on our way to start loosening the restrictive measures at the beginning of May. Restrictions will be lifted gradually, the curfew will be shortened, so far it has not been decided whether it will apply for the weekend. However, it must be borne in mind that life will not return to normal with the same dynamics despite the loosening of the measures, said Filipce.
