As the green certificate mandate for indoor activities in the country is about to come into effect on 21 October, interest in vaccination against Covid-19 has surged, with queues forming in front of many vaccination centres in the country.

“Because of the tightening of the measures and the green certificate, a discussion should be conducted with the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy and the trade unions, about the people who are not vaccinated or who have recovered from the infection during the first wave, or who have had Covid asymptomatically. They cannot go to work. How is this problem going to be solved?” medical lawyer Hristina Nikolova said for the BNR, and added that these are questions that are not settled by law.
