SOFIA, Oct 25 (Xinhua) Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said on his Facebook page on Sunday that he had tested positive for COVID-19 and is currently being treated at home.
"After two PCR tests today, I am positive with COVID-19," Boyko Borissov wrote on his Facebook, adding "at the discretion of the doctors, I remain on home treatment."
On Friday, Deputy Minister of Regional Development and Public Works of Bulgaria Nikolay Nankov confirmed that he tested positive for the coronavirus. His close contacts include Borissov and Minister of Finance Kiril Ananiev, and Minister of Agriculture, Food and Forestry Desislava Taneva.
