1.5 million doses of the two vaccines are expected to be delivered in Bulgaria by August, the sum total of all expected shipments  shows. They should suffice for the inoculation of 750,000 Bulgarian citizens, as each vaccine requires two doses administered within an interval of no less than 21 days, Dnevnik reports.
