62,010 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine arrived in Bulgaria today. This is the first delivery of a total of 2.7 million doses of the mRNA vaccine that this country should receive by the end of June. We expect additional 500,000 doses of "Moderna", as well as vector vaccines - over 1 million from "AstraZeneca" and 550 thousand doses of "Johnson and Johnson".

The news was reported by the executive director of the Bulgarian Drug Agency, Bogdan Kirilov, quoted by BGNES.

In his Facebook account, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said that GPs and vaccination centers would receive vaccines from the delivery of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines.
