Mandatory vaccination in Ukraine

On September 22, health minister Viktor Lyashko announced mandatory vaccination for education workers and public officials.

The Minister stressed that compulsory vaccination does not contradict Ukrainian laws, as it is provided by Article 12 of the law of Ukraine ‘On protection from infectious diseases’.

If employees in these areas refuse jabs, they will be suspended.

On September 20, the cabinet of ministers extended the nationwide quarantine in Ukraine until December 31.
