As it is known, since the use of COVID-19 vaccines, conspiracy theories about the side effects of vaccines have been produced all over the world. While the global governments are running some conditions for those who are not vaccinated, this situation is exacerbated, while Nobel Prize-winning Turkish scientist Aziz Sancar made important statements about anti-vaccination.
Coming to Turkey as TÜBİTAK’s guest of honor for TEKNOFEST, the world’s largest aviation, space and technology festival, Sancar met with the “TÜBİTAK COVID-19 Turkey Platform”. Making evaluations after the meeting titled “Developing Together and Succeeding Together”, Sancar said, “You have received information about vaccine studies in Turkey. How do you find the point of vaccine studies?” “I found it very successful. I knew about some of them, but I did not know in detail. They really did great things in 3 years and raised good students, I really liked them.”
‘Being anti-vaccine is illogical’
When asked if he had a message about being anti-vaccine, Sancar replied, “I don’t know what to say, because I think being anti-vaccine is an illogical attitude. Being anti-vaccine is not a logical attitude.”
Noting that the university he works for does not accept those who are not vaccinated, Sancar said, “I don’t know if Turkey enforces the laws, but even if the law does not enforce it, it is necessary to get vaccinated, otherwise you put someone else in danger. You have no right to do so.”
