"Wrong decisions of Bulgaria's government have led to problems with vaccines in this country", contends MEP Radan Kanev. Bulgaria took more AstraZeneca vaccines from the European Commission's first big order, instead of taking the relevant quantity of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines, Radan Kanev said for BNR. 

There must be an investigation into whether this is due to the lower price of the Oxford vaccine, established trade relations or other reasons, MEP Radan Kanev went on to say. “Is there any information campaign in Bulgaria aimed at promoting inoculation against Covid-19”, asked Radan Kanev and called on the government to admit that the vaccine problem in Bulgaria was caused by their own decisions, not by the European Commission.
