The Minister of Health Prof. Kostadin Angelov announced at the weekly briefing of the National Operational Headquarters that the measures introduced in Bulgaria to limit the infection are working. According to official data for the last week, the number of people cured is three times higher than the number of newly infected with COVID-19.
The five-month-old deer Rem is the newest addition to the “Four-legged friends” farm-shelter in the village of Hotnitsa. It is a one-of-a-kind place in the Veliko Tarnovo area where animals affected by human intervention or accidents can find care and love. Little Rem became part of the farm family soon after he was born. He was rescued by an elderly woman and then handed over to the shelter’s owners. The fragile four-legged animal would not have survived without the help of its benefactors, and today enjoys enviable living conditions, friends and great attention from visitors of the animal farm.
