A shipment of 21,060 doses of the Pfizer vaccine has arrived in Bulgaria, Bogdan Kirilov, director of the Bulgarian Drug Agency, told Nova TV. On March 19, another 33,600 doses of the Moderna vaccine will arrive. Another 51,060 are expected after March 21. There are also deliveries from AstraZeneca. A total of 480,000 doses are expected to arrive by the end of March, Kirilov explained.

Bulgaria's Chief state health inspector Angel Kunchev told bTV that it was not a case of thrombosis in the 57-year-old woman who died after vaccination in Plovdiv. At the beginning of next week at the latest, all the results of the research of the deceased woman will become clear, Kunchev said. Kunchev is of the opinion that this will lead to the start of mass inoculation.
