Poland’s prosecutors will be included in the “first group” and receive priority access to the vaccines against COVID-19 under the national vaccination plan, according to which medical staff and the elderly who are part of the “zero group” received the vaccine first.
The decision faced sharp criticism because those included in the first group will be given priority over people with chronic conditions below 60, who were added to the “second group”.
As “Gazeta Wyborcza” daily pointed out, no other EU country apart from Cyprus has included the army or special services into priority groups, and even Cyrpus does not plan to prioritise prosecutors.
