The President condemns the Moratuwa incident, calling it "extremely unpleasant."


“We select vaccination sites based on scientific evidence. We also look at statistics from the health-care industry. Despite this, yesterday's event was really unpleasant. The whole thing was a waste of time. “Don't let such things happen,” President Gotabaya Rajapaksa said today in response to the events in Moratuwa yesterday during the vaccination process.
