Gozitan teachers and LSEs asked to travel to Malta for COVID-19 vaccine

Feb 22 2021

After Gozitan Teachers and LSEs were informed to travel to Malta to receive their COVID vaccine, PN deputies Chris Said and Kevin Cutajar take to Facebook to condemn the decision.

The vulnerable, as also informed by Professor Charmaine Gauci, were informed to ignore the letter informing them to travel to Malta for their vaccine.

Gozitans expressed their worries over the initial message as travelling between the islands could in fact raise their chances of contracting the virus.

Spokespersons who addressed the issue stated that those not vulnerable should also receive their vaccination in Gozo as the necessary facilities are available there.
