At an extraordinary sitting the government allocated 96 million Leva to the health system, 50 million of which will go to pay the per capita sum of 1,000 Leva to frontline health workers, and the remaining 46 million – to purchase Remdesivir administered to hospitalized coronavirus patients.

Prime Minister Boyko Borissov commented on the decisions by EU leaders regarding Covid-19 vaccines: “I believe that in the coming days the European Commission is going to take steps to make their proportional distribution a fact. Perhaps in April we shall have three times as many vaccines.”
