Five Bulgarian viruses (A/Bulgaria/1381/2018, A/Bulgaria/1521/2018, A/Bulgaria/1527/2018, A/Bulgaria/013/2019 and A/Bulgaria/021/2019) underwent whole-genome sequencing. Encoded internal protein sequences were compared with those of A/Michigan/45/2015 (EPI_ISL_200780) and other viruses from Albania (EPI_ISL_380103 - EPI_ISL_380107), Macedonia (EPI_ISL_362268 - EPI_ISL362274) and Serbia (EPI_ISL_393798 - EPI_ISL_393802).
