There is no chaos in the organization of the vaccination process. A statement on the safety of the AstraZeneca vaccine is expected on March 17. Vaccinations are currently being carried out with Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, Prof. Krassimir Gigov, chairman of the National Vaccination Task Force, said in the city of Varna.

"There is no chaos and there is no stopping but a temporary postponement of the process and this is due to reasons beyond our control." It is expected that in the summer months vaccination would cover 30-40% of the population, which would lead to a decline in the rate of infection and control of the situation, Prof. Gigov said, quoted by BNR news.
