"Partial inoculation of teachers and elderly people accommodated in care homes begins where possible. A second dose of Covid-19 vaccine has been provided for all Bulgarians who have been vaccinated", Minister Angelov added.

"During the future mass vaccination campaign, we will set up special centers to administer Covid-19 vaccines. The centers are expected to work until 10 pm", the head of the National Operational Headquarters General Ventsislav Mutafchiiski said, BTA reported.
