“As soon as the test results come out, the data are uploaded to the single information system for Covid-19,” said Prof. Assen Baltov, CEO of Pirogov Emergency Hospital for BNT.

The idea is for this update to be done within the space of the same day, with priority given to the positive results. After them the negative results are filled into one single file within the system, he explained and added that the system is now functioning perfectly. The initial delay is a normal thing, as the processing of the data sometimes takes 3-4 minutes.
