United States top health advisor Anthony Fauci said on Wednesday that it is not mandatory for the public to get vaccinated against Covid-19. However, state administration may make it mandatory for some age groups, including children and toddlers, Agence France Presse reported.
Fauci, who is a key member of the US coronavirus task force, said during a video talk organised by George Washington University: “You don’t want to mandate and try and force anyone to take a vaccine. We’ve never done that.”
“You can mandate for certain groups of people like health workers, but for the general population you can't,” he added, said the AFP report.
