Amiran Gamkrelidze, head of the National Center for Disease Control, once again confirms that he is in favor of mandatory vaccination of doctors and teachers.
As he said, the package with the mentioned initiative has already been submitted to the interagency council. According to him, the interagency council will consider introduction of relevant mechanism.
"There are many mechanisms. We have presented the package. From my point of view, vaccinations for doctors (78% has received a single-dose, while 70% is fully vaccinated) and teachers (63% has received a single-dose and 52% is fully vaccinated) should be mandatory. I think decisions on this should be made in the coming weeks ", Gamkrelidze said.
