People waiting to receive a Covid-19 vaccine formed long queues in front of the vaccination centers after this country’s Ministry of Health opened green corridors for vaccination against Covid-19.

In Sofia, the University Hospital for Active Treatment Alexandrovska, Pirogov Hospital for Emergency Medicine, University Hospital St Anna and the Military Medical Academy opened green corridors for vaccination against Covid-19. The longest queue was in front of Alexandrovska Hospital. People waited for 3-4 hours to get a Covid-19 vaccine, reported the Bulgarian National Radio.

One of the people waiting to get a Covid-19 jab told the reporter of the BNR Nadezhda Nikolova that she had booked an appointment for today through the electronic platform, but she learned in the vaccination center that after the green corridors were opened, all registrations were canceled and everyone was waiting in a queue.
