Our country approves vaccination certificates because it is one of the ways to control the spread of the virus. I think that our country is pursuing a very active policy in this regard. This was said in the morning block of BNT by the director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases and a member of the National Operational Staff Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev.

–At European level, the certificate contains very little information – the name, the level of antibodies and the immune response and whether you have been vaccinated, he said.
The vaccine should be administered according to the manufacturer’s instructions – if it is indicated that it is effective only after two doses, then it should be administered this way, said Prof. Kantardzhiev.
My opinion about those vaccinated with AstraZeneca is that you have to wait two months from the first vaccine and then you can easily make the two Pfizer vaccines in 21 days, he said.
The director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases explained that thrombosis during vaccination with AstraZeneca was found in very rare cases and only with the first needle. There were no cases of thrombosis in the second needle, he stressed.
According to him, the price of PCR tests in our country is high due to high demand. When medicine is a market and a business, such things happen, said Prof. Kantardzhiev.
He assured that Bulgaria will receive enough vaccines to achieve collective immunity. We are now in April – we are waiting for another 250,000 vaccines to come to our country, another million in May – 250,000 every week at Pfizer and 350,000 every week in June, and another 250,000 at Moderna. So, we will have enough RNA vaccines to achieve collective immunity, said the member of the National Operations Staff.
