At a meeting, the Bulgarian Minister of Health, the Chief Health Inspector and the Prime Minister have discussed gradual easing of anti-coronavirus measures based on the number of vaccinated citizens and recoveries, BTA reported.

In the town of Byala, near Ruse, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov expressed confidence that 230,000 doses of vaccines would be delivered in Bulgaria by the end of March and more than 700,000 by the end of April. Authorities rely on GPs and specialists to administer up to 10,000-15,000 vaccines a day. "This allows for optimism that we would come out of the pandemic in May-June," PM Borissov added.
