We will have many new infected if we do not follow the measures in the winter, said Kantardzhiev.

In our country, the European vaccine against COVID-19 will be used, so the director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev told btv.

Unfortunately, we don’t have time to wait for years. The vaccine may not work well enough, but the vaccine that will be on the European market will be safe. The risk of quick side effects will be very small.he pointed.

Flu vaccines have maintained immunity for a year and a half, Kantardzhiev said, adding that immunity to viral infections is “a bit tricky.”

Companies are now quite frugal in scientific publications on vaccines, the professor said.

The first people vaccinated with the Russian vaccine have immune memory, Kantardzhiev said, adding that two to three years ago, the Russians made an Ebola vaccine very quickly.

Bulgaria will soon receive a vaccine. The vaccine will be free and available, Kantardzhiev said.

He noted that the Ministry of Education allows individual schools to choose whether children wear masks.

Kantardzhiev predicts that there will be a large increase in those infected with coronavirus, if with the cold weather in autumn 10% of people do not follow the measures.

Asked what is the reason that despite the accumulation in public places of many people who do not comply with the measures, the infected remain at the same level, Kantardzhiev said “to thank the dry climate and the sun.”

He noted that the Ministry of Education allows individual schools to choose whether children wear masks.

There should be no panic and people should not fear that the psyche of children will be affected, he said in a comment on the topic of children and masks 2 days before the start of the new school year.

He noted that children will wear masks only in common areas, but not in classrooms.

When the children are on their class team, they will be without masks. The emphasis of the measurements is ventilation, keeping distance, stressed the professor.
