It is still unclear when the green corridors for vaccination against coronavirus will work again, Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev, director of the National Centre for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, told bTV. He described as a good decision that people could be immunized immediately. 

According to the specialist, there is no danger that those who have received the first dose will be left without a second dose. However, if this happens, you should not worry, because the basic immunity is achieved with the first intake of the vaccine, and with the second increases by another 10-15%. 

Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev also said that it is logical to claim that Covid-19 survivors should be vaccinated with only one dose.
