Динамика на ваксинационния процес срещу Ковид-19 в България и в София в периода 01.02-15.05 2021 г.
Dynamics of COVID-19 Vaccination Process in Bulgaria and in Sofia in the Period February 1st – May 15th 2021

Summary/Abstract: From the very beginning of the immunisation process against Covid-19 in Bulgaria the vaccine acceptance is very low. The fact that Bulgaria is one of the countries with the highest mortality from the virus has no impact whatsoever. The article investigates the factors that made Bulgaria the least vaccinated country in Europe. The period it encompasses is from the beginning of the so called mass vaccination in February to the 15th of May. The vaccination trend is not moving upwards in spite of the fact that there are more than enough vaccines. The AstraZeneca side effects scandal added to the mistrust of the medicine. In the given period the antivax conspiracy groups had a solid campaign against immunisation. The health authorities on the other hand did not react with a good enough pro-vaccine campaign.
