No need for kids to be vaccinated to attend school: WHO
During a briefing, the World Health Organisation, during a briefing on Wednesday, said that kids do not need to be vaccinated to attend school.
Dr Katherine O’ Brien, a member of the WHO Covid-expert committee said, “There is no requirement for teenagers or kids to have to be vaccinated in order to attend school. That should not be a barrier for them to attend school. It’s about the protection of the adults around them, who are the ones who really have more risk of disease.”
