KLANG: All teachers should be required to get vaccinated against Covid-19 as their work involves dealing with the young who are susceptible to the deadly coronavirus, say many interest groups. “Given the above and the risk that unvaccinated teachers pose to students, teachers can and should be compelled to be vaccinated,’’ he added. “I call upon all teachers to be good examples by getting vaccinated,’’ said Siva Subramaniam who is also a former Suhakam commissioner. Another retired teacher Ng Sau Chan concurred, saying teachers must take note that they were dealing with young children daily. “Parents may opt not to send their children to school if they find out the teachers are not vaccinated,’’ said Ng.
