Those healthcare workers who do not comply with COVID-19 protocols and are barred from entry to the workplace will not be paid. This is according to Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony.
“The vaccine is not mandatory…you have a choice…the other option is to get tested…you show the negative result and you come to work…and if you don’t you will be marked absent and not paid,” Anthony told reporters on the sidelines of an event yesterday.
The Minister maintains that the government’s actions are legal because it is not “forcing anybody to take the vaccine”.
