Perhaps on Monday, January 10, a decision will be made on the possible resignation of Małopolska, the education superintendent Barbara Nowak. The reason is Friday's statement that vaccination against COVID-19 is a medical experiment.

Barbara Nowak in an interview with Radio Zet said that she was against compulsory vaccinations for teachers (such a solution is being sought by the Minister of Health, Adam Niedzielski, although the head of the Ministry of Education, like Barbara Nowak, does not want to hear about the introduction - as he says himself - "Compulsory vaccination"). - I absolutely do not agree with the idea of ​​forcing anyone to do anything, especially if we are talking about vaccines, which, as everyone knows, are not yet the complete consequences of using this experiment, as if it were not, said the curator Nowak.

The minister of health sharply commented on Barbara Nowak's statement, telling journalists that he could not imagine that a person spreading views contrary to scientific knowledge could be responsible for education. Thus, Adam Niedzielski directly expressed his expectation of the dismissal of the official, who - as we know - enjoys enormous support among key PiS politicians (especially Ryszard Terlecki). A few hours after the speech of Małopolska, the curator on the radio, the head of the Ministry of Education, Przemysław Czarnek, referred to her words. An entry appeared on the official profile of the ministry in social media, in which he described Nowak's words as "harmful". However, it is a long way from the criticism (Nowak apologized for her statement quite quickly, emphasizing that, as a person with historical education, she should not comment on medical topics) to the decision to resign - it is known that on Monday the Małopolska voivode will receive an official letter regarding Barbara Nowak from the ministry, but will it be a resignation?

Already on Friday, there were many demands to dismiss Nowak. The fact that opposition politicians, the Polish Teachers Union, etc. want it. not surprising. However, Beata Mazurek, a PiS MEP, who directly attacked Przemysław Czarnek in this matter, surprised: “Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki made a decision! The Polish Ambassador to the Czech Republic will be dismissed because: "There is no consent to extremely irresponsible statements" (...) Or maybe they are equal and more equal? ​​" - Mazurek wrote on Twitter, referring to the decision to dismiss the ambassador from Prague, who blamed the management of the mine with the responsibility for the conflict around Turów. "Are you deaf? Are you deaf? Do not keep us constantly in suspense, just have the courage to answer "- she insisted a few hours later in an entry addressed to Przemysław Czarnek. Although there were speculations that someone had hacked the MEP's account, she herself confirmed the authenticity of the entries in an interview with journalists.

However, Barbara Nowak also has defenders. Maria Kurowska, an MP from Solidarity of Poland, contacted the minister of education and science. - For a medal and award for Mrs. Curator Barbara Nowak, please! He has the wisdom and courage to defend children and teachers against coercion, deprivation of freedom and the unknown effects of the preparations injected into them - Kurowska wrote, adding that "such bosses in Poland are needed for Poland to be Poland."
