The campaign is organized by the regional sanitary inspectorates. Vaccinations are done by doctors in medical establishments for ambulatory and hospital medical care, regional health inspections, by doctors in specialized structures of the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Defense and by expressly created mobile immunization teams.

On December 24, it was announced that an organization had been formed to initiate vaccination against COVID-19, which would begin on December 27 in Sofia, Plovdiv and Burgas. Starting the next day, it will be expanded to other regional centers. The vaccination will be voluntary and free.

According to the director of the Bulgarian Medicines Agency, Bogdan Kirilov, we expect 100,000 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in Bulgaria by the end of January 2021. With this delivery, about 50,000 people can be vaccinated, since the vaccination is biphasic. The second vaccine, that of the Moderna company, is also expected to be approved on January 6. The Johnson & Johnson and Astra Zeneca vaccines are in the preliminary approval stage. We are expected to have 3-4 vaccines approved for use in February and March, Kirilov said.
