A rally against the mandatory Covid-19 vaccinations initiated by the country's health authorities started  in Yerevan on Thursday. "People should decide for themselves whether to get vaccinated or not and they are not subject to medical experiments," member of "Free Will" initiative Ara Zohrabyan stated at the opening of the protest. 

Zohrabyan recalled the constitutional provision that everyone shall have the right to physical integrity and that the right to physical integrity may be restricted only by law.

"This means that our health authorities have arbitrary restricted our right to physical integrity. They have put forward a precondition to either be vaccinated or submit PCR regular tests at our own expense. This means the minister forces us without leaving an alternative," said Zohrabyan.
