22% of the Bulgarians are adamant that they would take a Covid-19 vaccine. Nearly one-third intend to wait until they are sure of the effect of the vaccine and the absence of side effects. 28.9% would refuse to take Covid-19 vaccine due to fear of the vaccine itself. 12.2% of the respondents deny the existence of a coronavirus infection and only 4% are undecided, a survey of Barometer Bulgaria conducted in late November shows, quoted by Trud daily.

39% of the respondents support distance learning until the Covid-19 pandemic is contained. 19.5% of the respondents support in-class learning only and 26.2% support a compromise version in which primary school pupils remain in schools. 15.3% of the respondents are undecided, the survey further reads.
