Vaccine skepticism hurts East European anti-virus efforts.
BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Vaccines from the West, Russia or China? Or none at all? That dilemma faces nations in southeastern Europe, where coronavirus vaccination campaigns are off to a slow start — overshadowed by heated political debates and conspiracy theories. In countries like the Czech Republic, Serbia, Bosnia, Romania and Bulgaria, vaccine skeptics have included former presidents and even some doctors. Serbian tennis champion Novak Djokovic was among those who said he did not want to be forced to get inoculated. False beliefs that the coronavirus is a hoax or that vaccines would inject microchips into people have spread in the countries that were formerly under harsh Communist rule. Those who once routinely underwent mass inoculations are deeply split over whether to get the vaccines at all.
“There is a direct link between support for conspiracy theories and skepticism toward vaccination,” a recent Balkan study warned. “A majority across the region does not plan to take the vaccine, a ratio considerably lower than elsewhere in Europe, where a majority favors taking the vaccine.” Only about 200,000 people applied for the vaccine in Serbia, a country of 7 million, in the days after authorities opened the procedure. By contrast, 1 million Serbians signed up for 100 euros ($120) on the first day the government offered the pandemic aid. Hoping to encourage vaccinations, Serbian officials have gotten their shots on TV. Yet they themselves have been split over whether to get the Western-made Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine or Russia’s Sputnik V, more divisions in a country that is formally seeking European Union membership but where many favor closer ties with Moscow.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on Saturday greeted a shipment of 1 million doses of the Chinese Sinopharm vaccine, saying he will receive a shot to show that it is safe. “Serbs prefer the Russian vaccine,” read a recent headline of the Informer, a pro-government tabloid, as officials announced that 38% of those who have applied to take the shots favor the Russian vaccine, while 31% want the Pfizer-BioNTech version — a rough division among pro-Russians and pro-Westerners in Serbia. In neighboring Bosnia, a war-torn country that remains ethnically divided among Serbs, Bosniaks and Croats, politics also are a factor, as the Serb-run half appeared set to opt for the Russian vaccine, while the Bosniak-Croat part likely will turn to the Western ones. Sasa Milovanovic, a 57-year-old real estate agent from Belgrade, sees all vaccines as part of the “global manipulation” of the pandemic. “People are locked up, they have no lives any longer and live in a state of hysteria and fear,” he said.
Djokovic has said he was against being forced to take a coronavirus vaccine in order to travel and compete but was keeping his mind open. The top-ranked tennis player and his wife tested positive in June after a series of exhibition matches with zero social distancing that he organized in the Balkans. They and their foundation have donated 1 million euros ($1.1 million) to buy ventilators and other medical equipment for hospitals in Serbia.
Serbian Health Ministry official Mirsad Djerlek has described the vaccine response as “satisfactory,” but cautioned on the state-run RTS broadcaster that “people in rural areas usually believe in conspiracy theories, and that is why we should talk to them and explain that the vaccine is the only way out in this situation.” A study by the Balkans in Europe Policy Advisory Group, published before the regional vaccination campaign started in December, concluded that virus conspiracy theories are believed by nearly 80% of citizens of the Western Balkan countries striving to join the EU. About half of them will refuse to get vaccinated, it said.
Baseless theories allege the virus isn’t real or that it’s a bioweapon created by the U.S. or its adversaries. Another popular falsehood holds that Microsoft founder Bill Gates is using COVID-19 vaccines to implant microchips in the planet's 7 billion people.

Bulgaria to Auction Frequency Licences to boost 5G Rollout.
SOFIA, Feb 3(Reuters) - Bulgaria's telecoms regulator will auction on March 15 three frequency licences that will allow the development of 5G wireless networks in the Balkan country, it said late on Tuesday. The Communications Regulation Commission said it would auction three, 20-year licences in the 3.6 GHz spectrum, each with an initial price of 4 million levs ($2.5 million). "The auctions will be for licences with a national coverage for the use of bands in 3,500-3,600 MHz, 3,600-3,700 MHz and 3,700-3,800 MHz," the regulator said in a statement.
Both leading telecom operator Vivacom and A1, part of Austria's A1 Group controlled by Mexico's America Movil , have expressed an interest in acquiring the three licences, each for 100 MHz, while Telenor Bulgaria, owned by Czech investment group PPF, wanted one licence. Vivacom and A1 have been offering some 5G services since the autumn, based on temporary frequencies granted by the regulator. Telenor Bulgaria, which carried out 5G trials in 2019, is yet to reveal its 5G rollout plans.
With an estimated combined investment of over 800 million levs over the next few years, the three telecoms firms have asked for lower frequencies fees and less bureaucracy to push ahead with a swift 5G rollout. The regulator granted additional temporary frequencies in the 2.6 GHz spectrum to the three companies earlier this month.

Nearly 280 Vaccination Sites will be opened up throughout the Country and their addresses will be uploaded on a special platform, said at the National Assembly Health Minister Kostadin Angelov, specifying that the ministry is to launch an information campaign on the benefits of vaccination: "With our assistance, the European Commission representation in Bulgaria is preparing a special Information Campaign on Facebook in the form of video clips, where already vaccinated doctors and nurses talk about the benefits of vaccination against Covid-19. We are also working with Google to create an interactive map where all vaccination centers in the country will be designated. It will be part of the platform of the world-famous campaign for citizens' quick access to sites where they can get vaccinated. The 276 immunization sites created in the country by that moment will be mapped," the minister added.

Derek some friends of mine (Irish /English ) in Sofia got their first jab at the weekend.
From what I understand the locals are not so keen on the vaccine to the extent that the authorities opened up multiple locations and administered the jab to however wanted it.
Obviously you have to be local or have a RP.

Yes, pubs & restaurants 1st March. Then nightclubs etc., 1st April. Most COVID figures are on the rise at the moment. All because of the Elections on April 4th.
