Is it true that Croatia prohibits vaccines?

Information derived on the network that Croatia prohibits vaccines, since, according to the president, the Croats were vaccinated enough. We decided to check what the Croatian president actually said and whether such information is true.

The statement that Croatia has banned vaccines, wide Distracted in social networks and messengers. President of Croatia Zoran Milanovich attributed The statement that “we vaccinated enough. And everyone knows this. We will not prick more than 50% - let them surpass us with a fence with barbed wire. ” The president is used as confirmation of these words Video With his interview. Users who distribute this information express the words of support to the European leader and approve of his act, his called On the Web "President of a Healthy Man". This story has become widespread not only in Russian -speaking Internet segment, but also on English language.

To figure out what the Croatian leader actually said, we turn to the national media. "Evening newspaper" Curses The complete decoding of the presidential words. The material went out under the heading "to eradicate the virus, and there is no question." Milanovich really condemns the culture of universal security and an attempt to build a society without illness, accusing the media of spreading panic. He says that there are enough vaccines in the country and there are enough of them to everyone. The level of vaccination of 50% seems sufficient to not introduce new restrictions, and not as a “ceiling” of vaccination for the population. The President said that, from the point of view of restrictive measures, to focus on Sweden, and not Australia and Japan with "obsessive quarantine measures and isolation." Thus, there are no confirmations of stopping the vaccination campaign in the country. Moreover, the interview was published on September 10, and, as you can, see reputable resources with statistical data, vaccination in the country continues.

Moreover, recently Croatia Opened The so -called vaccine tours: “In Croatia, they are vaccinated with two -component vaccines PFIZER, MODERNA, ASTRAZENECA and one -component - Johnson & Johnson / Janssen”, the cost of the tour includes a flight and transfer, recording vaccination, vaccination itself and medical insurance itself All days of stay in the country.

To complete the picture, several more facts should be noted. Firstly, Zoran Milanovich is not an adversary of vaccination and never was. The Croatian president himself Vaccinated As early as January 7, 2021, then urging the nation to follow his example: “I urge everyone who wants, as well as those who do not want or doubt, to go through vaccination, because the vaccine was not done on the knee, but a very strict approval process has passed, and it definitely helps. <...> People, make a vaccine, it's better than getting sick. Not just not so bad, but better. ”

Secondly, on the official website of the Ministry of Health of Croatia is not informationconfirming the cessation of vaccination. Moreover, on October 4, the last news on the resource - statement The Minister of Health that "the main goal for today is to limit the spread of the virus as much as possible." And on the main page of the site dedicated to the situation with the virus in the country, hanging A banner with a call to undergo vaccination.

Thirdly, Croatia is not a presidential, but a parliamentary republic, therefore the president’s sole decision Can't Neither start nor cancel vaccination. 

Thus, the words of the Croatian President Zoran Milanovich were translated incorrectly, which completely distorted the meaning of his speech. Anti -Vaccinators took advantage of the incorrect translation as evidence of supporting their positions by the leaders of European countries. However, this is not so.
