WARSAW, Poland—Poland’s Health Ministry said Tuesday that the March 1 deadline for full vaccination of teachers and so-called uniformed services is being pushed back indefinitely because it cannot be met.

Last year the government said teachers, medics, police, armed forces, and the firefighters need to be inoculated by March 1 if they want to perform their jobs.
