According to data from the Bulgarian National Statistical Institute, 108 526 Bulgarians – a big Bulgarian city – have died from these and other diseases in 2018. Of these, 70 546 died from strokes and myocardial infarctions, and 17 462 from malignant tumors. In the same year, only 62 197 children were born. The drop in the population is 46 329 per year in a country with about 7 million population. By dividing 108 526 to 365, there are 297 – the saddest arithmetic in Europe, so many people die every day in Bulgaria! And only 170 children are born daily. Hence, in Bulgaria the song of the goat – tragedy (Greek, tragoudia; tragos – goat, aedin – sing) is continuing.
