In September 2021 Italy became the first European Country to make COVID-19 health passes mandatory for all workers. By the end of the same month Canada, the United States, Australia, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia and Turkmenistan all announced similar vaccine mandates. Proponents of the mandate argue that these mandates are the only way to end the global COVID-19 pandemic. Opponents cite evidence that people who already have natural immunity are at heightened risk of vaccine side effects caused by an augmented inflammatory response.

What are your thoughts on balancing public health safety with personal freedom to choose medical procedures?
@9H8KKJH5mos5MO
People should have a choice on medical issues and should not be forced
@9LL23TR1wk1W
i think it should be an obligation as a Human of Earth that if you CAN receive the vaccine (without medical repurcussion, for example) then you should
@9LDWH7Q3wks3W
No, vaccination for Covid is like flu vaccination and should be a choice. It’s different from childhood vaccination
This might be appropriate where employees are customer facing such a social care,public transport taxis
@9K7LBSQ2mos2MO
Yes, unless they cannot for health reasons. Furthermore Employees could be offered the opportunity to wear masks instead, ones which could be of a state mandated quality.
@9JYMMMQ2mos2MO
Healthcare and education workers should be vaccinated unless they have health complications. However, you should be allowed to be discriminated against if you do not vaccinate (for anything) without having a valid health reason not to.
@9JXLSQC 2mos2MO
Vaccination should be an individual choice as per the Geneva Convention regarding medical procedures and individual choice
Yes, but allow exceptions for those with medical reasons that mean they cannot have the vaccine e.g. immunosuppressed
@9JFNH8T3mos3MO
No, but the government should encourage that the employees of large businesses are vaccinated from COVID.
@9J47TLR3mos3MO
I think it should be encouraged and in some fields required however in most fields it should be left to a final decision of the individual
@9HW9S69Conservative4mos4MO
No, because the COVID vaccine is proving to be dangerous to health in certain ways (eg those with cardiovascular problems).
@9HSL3FW4mos4MO
No. Vaccination should never be mandated for anyone to work or attend school or places of education. Vaccines carry rare but real risk of injury. Whether or not to be vaccinated should be down to individual choice.
@9HQS8TH4mos4MO
It should be recommended but you cannot force people to do something just because the government says you have to
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
@9H5YF5T5mos5MO
No, only by specific businesses where being unvaccinated has lethal implications for others, such as NHS work.
@9BJNJBC1yr1Y
Only for people that were born outside of Britain
@9BH99991yr1Y
Depends on whether this becomes a danger to the nations health again, but even then it should only apply to certain fields (notably the NHS)
@9B3L92C1yr1Y
Key vaccinations should be mandatory anyway to protect everyone, provided no allergies.
@99TKZ5Q1yr1Y
People should be incentivised to get vaccinated but the thought of the government being able to force it makes me uncomfortable
@99T3DDN1yr1Y
No, the COVID vaccine should be banned.
@99QPWMR1yr1Y
I think industries & businesses vital for the economy should require vaccination during extreme times
@99M4MJS1yr1Y
The vaccines maim and kill.
@99L8R5V1yr1Y
I think people should get vaccinated no matter what as you are putting others lives at risk
no it should be left to businesses to make the choice requiring vaccination or not
@99G7XQ41yr1Y
No. No person, business, government or institution must ever require or mandate any medical procedure.
Vaccination is a personal choice
@996WTW7Conservative1yr1Y
No, this should not be controlled by the government.
@98ZLWC21yr1Y
Vaccines should be encouraged but not mandatory
@987D3ND1yr1Y
Yes every person able should be required to get vaccinated
@986K2FP1yr1Y
Unless if an individual's taking of a vaccine is a health risk, I think businesses should require vaccination but not by government mandate.
@9866KWG1yr1Y
Abolish governments and companies
@98627JW1yr1Y
It should not be a requirement, but it should be a preference. It should be encouraged but if individuals, when presented with all adequate information, say 'no' then it should mean no.
@9845X821yr1Y
Only if they work with vulnerable people
@97Z72691yr1Y
Yes , but not for personal/religious beliefs or health issues
@97Z3H531yr1Y
Only if it is relevant to industry of business ie: catering etc
@97Y4KSH1yr1Y
Yes, unless you cant get a vaccine because of medical reasons.
@97XX73X1yr1Y
No, the government should encourage employees of large businesses to get vaccinated, but it should not be a requirement.
@97SL6R51yr1Y
It should be recommended but not mandatory
Yes unless they have a valid exemption (medical or philosophical and there must be a clear and accessible path to aquire such exemptions)
@97D6T531yr1Y
No, personal health is a choice however such employees should be limited in public interaction when around vulnerable clients
@97BZM4B1yr1Y
How utterly ridiculous! They don't prevent transmission so why even ask! They are now proven to downgrade people's immune function leading to other health problems. It was always 99.9% recoverable so these are purely for profit and corrupt!
@974V27WConservative1yr1Y
No, the government should not demand businesses to regulate employees
