Vaccination for soldiers would be voluntary, it said.Following reports of the presence of the Poliovirus in the Gaza Strip — a virus which is contagious through drinking or oral contact with contaminated water — the IDF conducted sampling tests in various areas where remnants of the Poliovirus were discovered.
In addition, the troops were instructed to carry out actions to maintain personal hygiene. It is important to emphasize that a soldier who does not want to be vaccinated will not be obliged to do so.
