The number of vaccinated people per day has decreased several times, announced in Burgas the former director of the National Centre for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev. He called on people to get vaccinated - otherwise both the healthcare system and people will have problems in the autumn. 
Currently, ten coronavirus patients infect another ten. The specialist informed about a document in which the European Centre for Disease Control from Covid-19 draws attention to the spread of the "Delta" variant and the need for children to be vaccinated. 
All four vaccines used in Bulgaria have a positive effect on this variant of the virus, added Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev.
