Three Swiss Guards who protect the Pope and Vatican have returned to Switzerland after refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, said a spokesman for the Guard.
“Three members of the Guard have chosen not to adhere to that request, voluntarily leaving the corps,″ Lt. Urs Breitenmoser told The Associated Press, saying the Vatican asked the Swiss Guards to receive the vaccine to “protect their health and that of the others they come into contact with as part of their service.”
