“The amounts of vaccine Bulgaria is going to receive in May will be double the amounts received in April, and quadruple in June. This will solve the problem of quantities and the country will have to address the other problem – people’s unwillingness to get vaccinated,” Chief State Health Inspector Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev said, BGNES reports.

At a press conference dedicated to European Immunization Week, Assoc. Prof. Angel Kunchev stated that the ultimate objective in the fight against Covid-19 is to reach a vaccination level of 70-75% percent of the population, and that is what Bulgaria is aiming at. When that happens “we shall throw away the masks, the restrictions will be lifted and we shall go back to a normal way of life,” Angel Kunchev said.
