Bulgaria is to receive 1,251,000 doses of “solidarity vaccines”, the Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the EU told the Bulgarian National Radio. The news has been confirmed by diplomatic sources in Sofia.
These numbers were negotiated at a meeting of the permanent representatives of the member countries. The agreement was proposed by the Portuguese Presidency. The doses are part of the total of 10 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine negotiated at the latest European Council meeting. They will be distributed proportionally to the population of the member countries and will be delivered during the second quarter of 2021.
