Persons have right to vaccinate or not - Premier
“Mr Speaker is it very simple… educate, then don’t procrastinate [and] vaccinate and respect those who do not want to vaccinate, that’s your democratic right and you should make sure you exercise your democratic right.”
“But at the same time though, you must respect those who are using their democratic right to push for vaccination and let’s not fall out over this,” he said.
According to the Leader of Government business, too many relations in the VI have been damaged over the vaccine on whether to take it or not.
“If you don’t want to take it don’t take it… and if you [are] taking it, take it. If you don’t want persons taking it.. defend yourself in a respectful way,” he said.

As of Thursday, May 13, 2021, 11,036 persons had received their first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine while 3,765 had received their second dose, the Health Minister revealed.
