Most of the comments under the publications of the UOC Information Centre on Facebook and Instagram on the topic of bill No. 4142 "On the Public Health System" supported in the first reading by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, according to which in some cases vaccination will be mandatory, were against the intentions of the authorities, reports “Fraza”.
It was proposed to take part in the discussion on February 4, and as of today, more than 33 thousand users, who have left more than 600 comments on Facebook and Instagram, have paid attention to the topic.
Believers opposed the adoption of bill No. 4142, calling it anti-constitutional and anti-democratic. In their comments, they say they lack confidence in the quality of new vaccines and the lack of research on the long-term effects of the proposed drugs. Compulsory vaccination is called "a large-scale experiment on the people" and calls on the authorities to regulate the legal mechanism of responsibility for the safety of drugs and the possibility of refusing or replacing the vaccine due to religious beliefs.
As reported, the Minister of Health of Ukraine Maxim Stepanov said that vaccination in the country will not be compulsory.
