SOFIA: One day after flu epidemic measures were introduced in Bulgaria's Varna District for the first time this season, neighbouring Dobrich District decided to follow suit.

The measures in the northeastern Bulgarian region will be in effect from January 19 to January 23, local media reported on Thursday.

During the five-day period, in-person classes in all schools will be suspended. Hospital visits, planned surgeries, child immunisations, and pediatric consultations will also be halted.
