Pirogov Hospital is one of the medical institutions where vaccination against Covid-19 will start on December 27, head of the hospital Prof. Asen Baltov has told bTV.

Pirogov already has a refrigerator that maintains a temperature of -70 degrees, which is needed for the first expected vaccines.

A 24-hour office for people with possible allergic reactions after vaccination will also be opened. The number of new cases of coronavirus and mortality in our country have not been decreasing at the expected rate after the introduction of new anti-epidemic measures, because there is hidden morbidity, Prof. Asen Baltov said. He added that many infected people avoid to be tested, which is why they are not quarantined together with their relatives.
