I will discuss with the Minister of Finance Vladislav Goranov whether the cabinet can finance with EUR 11 million three new programmes of the state-owned enterprise BulBio, Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov said during his visit to the National Center of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases. The company produces BCG vaccines for Latin America, almost all African countries and Southeast Asia and has developed a project for manufacture of serum from animals. The National Center of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases assured that the expected financing will be used to expand the capacity for manufacture of a huge quantity of vaccines.
