All people who are waiting to get vaccinated against Covid-19 should benefit from the so-called "green corridor" vaccination scheme, Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov told this country’s Minister of Health Professor Kostadin Angelov during a visit to the children’s ward in Pirogov Emergency Hospital. “21,000 doses of the Pfizer/BioNtech vaccine are expected on March 1. They must be kept for the members of the sectional election commissions and the regional election commissions”, Boyko Borissov went on to say.

“We are to decide by Sunday noon whether to reopen the so-called "green corridors" for all people wishing to get a Covid-19 vaccine, because not all Bulgarian districts are in the same vaccination phase”, Minister Angelov added.
