Immunisation in Bulgaria against Covid-19 will certainly start after the New Year, Chief State Health Inspector Associate Professor Angel Kunchev told a briefing in the council of Ministers on December 2.
“There will be people who say that they do not believe in these vaccines and do not want to be immunised. Then what would be the effect on public health. “There are clear rules in epidemiology that if 60 to 70 per cent of the population is not immunised, then public health is not protected, only the individual who is immunised,” Kunchev said.
Bulgaria’s cabinet adopted a national pandemic preparedness plan.
The plan is meant to cover all possible pandemics. The plan’s main goals are to reduce morbidity and reduce mortality, provide treatment for the ill and provide information to the public about the course of the pandemic and measures taken, he told the briefing.
The first batch of Covid-19 vaccine arrives in Bulgaria by the New Year or early 2021.
