Protesters against the green certificates and coercive Covid vaccination marched in Sofia. They stopped in front of the Ministry of Health and the Presidency, then proceeded to the parliament and the key crossroads "Eagles' Bridge".

"We are responsible for our own health. The fact that we do not want to be vaccinated concerns our personal health," protesters told BNR.

"I have a certificate because I overcame the illness, but I don't see why anyone should force me to get vaccinated against something when I don't want to," one of the protesters told reporters

The organizers announced that from October 25 they will start meeting and speaking to the inspecting state health officials in order to convince them that their inspections were illegal.
