Peter Kotlár, a member of the Slovak National Party (SNS), has reiterated his call for the immediate withdrawal of mRNA vaccines from the market, citing 'new findings' presented at a government meeting. This marks a second attempt for Kotlár to push his agenda, as he previously appeared at government offices but could not address ministers directly. In his recent presentation, which was conducted in secrecy, he claimed that the vaccines are ineffective and dangerous, though he failed to provide any concrete evidence or details to support his assertions.

The opposition party SaS has reacted to Kotlár's claims by demanding a parliamentary investigation into the claims made by the commissioner. They argue that such serious allegations against the widely used mRNA vaccines warrant thorough scrutiny and transparency, which Kotlár has not provided. The push for an investigation reflects growing concerns among political factions regarding the management of health policies and safety regulations surrounding COVID-19 vaccinations in Slovakia.

This situation highlights the ongoing debates surrounding vaccine safety and efficacy in Slovakia, where public trust in health authorities and vaccination programs has already been strained. The insistence on mRNA vaccines by political figures like Kotlár, without clear backing from scientific data, could potentially lead to increased vaccine hesitancy among the public, further complicating Slovakia's public health response.
