The Vatican has declared it is ‘morally acceptable’ for Roman Catholics to receive Covid vaccines based on research that used fetal tissue from abortions.
The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican’s watchdog office for doctrinal orthodoxy, said it addressed the question after receiving several requests for ‘guidance’ during recent months.
The doctrine office noted that bishops, Catholic groups and experts have offered ‘diverse and sometimes conflicting pronouncements’ on the matter.
