Health Minister Stoicho Katsarov has said Bulgaria plans to provide about 150,000 Covid-19 vaccines to its Balkan neighbours, Reuters reports.
Bulgaria has the lowest inoculation rates in the European Union (EU), but Katsarov said the country is expecting about 13 to 14 million doses under the EU supply scheme by the end of the year and can afford to help other countries.
"The idea is to distribute up to 150,000 doses among our neighbouring western Balkan countries," Katsarov told reporters, adding that Sofia has received requests from North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo and Bosnia.
"Our needs are fully covered so there is no danger whatsoever that Bulgaria can be left without vaccines."
