United States and United States.

However, the WHO has marked its position by stating that it “opposes all compulsory vaccination”, although s “the general population needs to be made aware of how vaccines work and how important they are”spokesperson for the organization Fadela Chaib, quoted by the Spanish international network RTVE, told a press conference.

In addition, he stressed that vaccines are only “one of the many tools we have in our hands”, since WHO experts have reiterated that vaccines are not enough in the fight against the coronavirus and must be combined with measures to stop infections.

Italy was the first country to require its toilets to be vaccinatedas well as teachers. In France, doctors must also do the injection. In the UK and Greece, employees of geriatric people also need to be vaccinated if they want to continue working.
