The Ministry of Labor, Employment, Veteran and Social Affairs and Minister Darija Kisic Tepavcevic have rejected as incorrect allegations, which they say appeared on social media, that centers for social welfare would be taking children away from parents who don't allow them to be vaccinated against Covid 19.

A statement from the Ministry sent to Tanjug appeals on everyone not to "spread such fake news."

The ministry said that dissemination of unverified and unfounded statements upsets members of the public, especially parents, as these statements contain completely inaccurate and untrue information that social welfare centers will be taking children away from those parents who prevent vaccination.

The ministry added that causing such disturbance is particularly unacceptable when everyone in the country is focused on preventing the spread of the epidemic.
