General Practitioner Valeri Velichkov from the town of Breznik said that he would continue immunizations with AstraZeneca vaccines only after the studies on its safety were completed and a clear position existed. About 70-80 of Dr. Velichkov’s patients have already been immunized with the vaccines. The doctor told BNR correspondent Elena Tamakyarska that there had been no serious side effects, but the contradictory reports about the safety of the vaccine and the lack of a definite position do not allow him to continue administering the vaccine.

We recall that at a meeting of the Vaccination Task Force a decision for continuing the use of "Astra Zeneca" vaccine with caution, was made.
