Vaccination is optional, and the Ministry of Health does not in any way promote mandatory vaccination
Vaccination is optional, and the Ministry of Health does not in any way promote mandatory vaccination – Minister Alexandru Rafila reminded on Thursday. In a press conference, he emphasized that the project of the national vaccination strategy only ensures everyone’s access to immunization sera, given that Romania is beyond the 100th place in the world ranking of vaccination coverage. The statement of the minister of health came in the context where on Thursday, in front of the ministry, more than 200 people, including members of the AUR, participated in a protest where they demanded the resignation of the minister of health, arguing that although the authorities say that vaccination is not mandatory, the population is influenced to vaccinate.
