Kunchev announced that a certain amount of the single-dose vaccine will be aimed at those employed in the tourism sector before the summer tourist season.
"This vaccine is a single dose and a document can be issued immediately after it is given and it is administered and it will be known which people working in tourism are already protected," Kunchev explained.
In the coming weeks, there will be mainly supplies of RNA vaccines to Bulgaria, the director of the Medicines Agency Bogdan Kirilov said at the briefing.
