COVID vaccination not to be mandatory under this government - PM

The COVID vaccination will not be mandatory under the current Czech government, PM Andrej Babis said today during his visit of the hospital in Nachod in the Hradec Kralove Region. Health Minister Adam Vojtech said he shared this view. The Czech Republic is to hold general election on October 8-9. To be clear, no vaccination, be it of the public or health professionals, will be ever made compulsory under this government, Babis stressed. He added this was to be debated by the next government.
