Kunchev: The safety profile of vaccines is excellent
“I have never made decisions under pressure. If we allow emotion or stubbornness to lead us in this battle that we have fought so far, we will lose it very quickly,” he said. The opening of restaurants can be discussed only in mid-February, Angelov emphasized, but only if there is no jump in the sick.
“After health and education, if the level of morbidity is maintained and does not increase, little by little we will begin to open other industries. First, on February 4, we release high school, sports and culture students. After them, on February 18 come the restaurants, cafes and shopping centers, and then the discos. Restaurants and hoteliers are a very important industry, but right now our priorities are health, education, culture and sports, ”said Prof. Angelov.
And the mass vaccination against the coronavirus in our country may begin in April. The forecast is from the Chief State Health Inspector – Associate Prof. Angel Kunchev. This morning he received the first dose of Pfizer himself. According to him, the COVID-19 infection between the two immunizations is fully expected in a pandemic situation.
What is the condition of Haskovo doctors, infected with COVID-19 after vaccination?
The reason for the comment is the case of two medical workers with positive samples days after their vaccination. They are a nurse from Harmanli hospital and a doctor from Haskovo lung hospital. Both showed symptoms of coronavirus about 10 days after the first dose of the vaccine. They are currently receiving home treatment.
According to Associate Professor Kunchev, the reason for the infection is the lack of sufficiently created antibodies before reimmunization. However, this would not prevent the two healthcare professionals from receiving a second dose of the drug when their condition permitted.
Between the two doses of the vaccine, the measures must continue to be strictly adhered to, the experts recalled, as time is sufficient for us to encounter the virus. The infection of both infected medical workers in the Haskovo region is progressing slightly so far. However, his second vaccination was postponed.
“There is no problem for them to be vaccinated, but it will depend on their disease, if it is mild, it is not a contraindication, if it is serious, they will wait.” There is no final period where you can’t put the second, but the closer the better, “explained Adjunct Professor Kunchev.
544 new cases of coronavirus in our country
At the Sofia Health Inspectorate, Associate Professor Kunchev received the first dose of the Pfizer preparation. Mass vaccination may begin in late April, experts say. However, the forecast is only in case the AstraZeneka product is approved in Europe next week.
“The quantities of all producers are increasing at a very high rate, especially after March. We have already completed the first phase in most areas, we started working with schools and nursing homes and there will be an opportunity to move on to the third. very quickly, “Kunchev explained.
According to the Deputy Director of Pirogov – Prof. Nikolay Gabrovski, at the moment immunization in our country is going at a satisfactory rate. However, this could change dramatically with the new, more contagious variation of COVID-19.
“We must be careful in granting the measures, because our current position is very good, if we maintain it, if we vaccinate now or in two or three weeks, it does not matter, but if we have a new strain and overcrowding.” hospitals, this will be a waste of time, “he said.
