Hello all!

I've heard by word of mouth that all teachers are now required to take the vaccine in Turkey, and was wondering if anyone had more information on that! Is this true?

Thank you!

as far as i know, foreigners holding residence are subject to vaccination as well as turkish citizens under same schedule. there is no special programme yet related to teachers.

Thanks so much for your response! Does that mean it is currently not mandatory for teachers to have the vaccine?/ Teachers can choose not to take it?
