UNC’s Shadow Health Minister, Dr Rishaad Seecharan, says the party will not back mandatory vaccination at this time despite the low vaccination rates.
Speaking with News Power Now, the Caroni East MP instead called on the Government to change its approach to the vaccination drive.
He said the Government still has a lot of work to do to convince persons to get vaccinated.
Dr Seecharan commended the Government for finally discarding the “lockdown approach” to tackling the virus.
However he was still critical of the safe zone initiative which he said has some loopholes.
