St. Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves
St. Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves says mandatory COVID-19 vaccination can be ordered for private and public sector workers.
He says the law allows for a person to be sacked if they refuse to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
According to Dr. Gonsalves, who is also Minister of Legal Affairs, employers have a right to a safe place of work.
The government has ordered that all unvaccinated public sector workers present to their supervisor a negative COVID-19 test.
The workers have also been told they must be prepared for regular testing, up to once every two weeks.
The Public Service Union has dismissed the government's policy as another attempt to force people to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
