Vaccination

There are 33 proven cases of the British variant of the coronavirus so far in Bulgaria. This was said in the studio of BNT by the Minister of Health Kostadin Angelov.

According to him, there is already an internal spread of the new virus, as people who have not traveled to the UK in recent months have been detected.

Inoculating billions of people against Covid-19 in the shortest possible time was always going to be a massive, unprecedented operation in terms of scale and complexity.

The National COVID-19 Vaccination Coordination Committee on Friday reported that in the last 24 hours 37,604 people were immunised in Romania according to data provided by the National Institute of Public Health via the National Electronic Register of Vaccinations. Of the people vaccinated in the last 24 hours, 20,578 received their first dose and 17,026 their second dose.

So far, there is no abolition of anti-epidemic measures, Dr Darija Kisi Tepavevi said.
The measure related to the mandatory negative PCR test for entering Serbia from Hungary has not been abolished either.

Inhabitants of remote Greek islands received the Covid-19 vaccine this week as the government rolled out its inoculation campaign to include tiny villages, some with no more than a couple of dozens inhabitants.

An offer that cannot be missed came from Moscow - the company behind the Russian vaccine against coronavirus offered the European Union to send them 100.000.000 doses of "Sputnik V" vaccine during the second quarter of this year.

The European Medicines Agency says no new side effects linked to the coronavirus vaccine made by BioNTech and Pfizer - and used in Greece right now - were identified in the regulator's first safety update on Covid-19 vaccines.

He added that the country was waiting to see how the mass vaccination with the Chinese vaccine in Serbia would go.
In early January, Serbia received one million doses of the Chinese vaccine Sinopharm, and thus became the first European country to start a mass vaccination program with that vaccine, Reuters reports.

New 40.000 doses were delivered this morning at around six o'clock, and the plane with vaccines was welcomed by the Minister of Innovation Nenad Popovi at the Belgrade "Nikola Tesla" airport.
With the new 40.000 doses, 20.000 people will be able to be vaccinated.
Prime Minister Ana Brnabi announced yesterday that new quantities of the "Pfizer" vaccine will arrive on Monday.

He said that he hoped that some quantities of the vaccine, through the COVAX program, would arrive in Serbia soon.
Ivanusa told RTS that the WHO is helping the authorities in Serbia and emphasized that vaccination is a safe way to achieve collective immunity and stop the epidemic.
