A Bulgarian vaccine against coronavirus is to be presented before the world scientific community at a congress in the autumn, Prof. Andrey Chorbanov from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences said for BNT.  

There will probably be two formulations – for inhalation and for immunization. According to Prof. Chorbanov several countries have already displayed an interest in the vaccine though not Bulgaria. “Science in this country is accustomed to being neglected,” he said.

Prof. Chorbanov stated that people who have recovered from coronavirus and those who are vaccinated do not transmit the virus to an enormous degree which means they do not need to wear masks. People who had Covid-19 in March-April still have immunity.
