Forced Vaccinations are Rights Violation

By John Lee.

Passengers arriving in Lebanon on flights from are reportedly being forced to receive oral polio vaccinations.

Writing in Rudaw, Judit Neurink says "these forced immunization boosters are a human rights violation, as they breech the integrity of one’s one body. More importantly, it discriminates against and scandalizes a whole population already plagued by war and its effects."

Earlier this week, the United Nations announced that Iraq has been polio-free for the past year.
