85% vaccination exemption requests rejected

Thursday, August 19, 2021

The Vaccination Exemption Committee, set up to approve the request for exemption from vaccination on medical ground, has dealt with more than 300 requests for exemption from Covid-19 vaccinations since the beginning of receiving applications last Sunday.

According to report, 85% of those applications were rejected as they did not meet the conditions specified by the Ministry, or even mentioned the reason for the exemption.

The requests should meet the conditions set by the ministry, including attaching all relevant medical reports issued by one of the government health facilities in the country, and they must include a clear reason for the exemption.
