Vaccination Passport | Fans will be denied entry without valid NHS pass

[Citizen of Legoland]

People make choices and need to live with the consequences. That's life.

But we tend to try and stop people harming others, is the pertinent fact here.

I think both points are pertinent. As a society we make collective choices in order to protect public health, but people should be free to avoid being part of that if they wish. That is their choice and the hallmark of a free society, but they must accept that there are consequences for them, much the same as people who choose not to take a driving test cannot lawfully drive a car on a public highway.

Princioles are fine, but they cannot be consequence free, otherwise they aren’t really principles, but choices. There is a difference.

Socoety can only function effectively if those who step outside conventions are free to do so, as long as it is lawful, but they must accept that there will be inconveniences for so doing. There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

People need to own their fucking decisions.

Ah, got your point now. I agree.

Thanks for that. I would have used contemporary media articles to look for it.

Plenty of those available as well if anyone doubts that this lunacy actually took place

Ah yes - the best thing about social media is that it gives everyone a platform for their views.

Surely the worst thing about social media is Miguel Delaney.

We have speed limits on the roads to prevent people harming themselves and others. The same argument as used for vaccinations could easily and justly be applied to speed limits, an infringement of liberty, a restraint on those drivers who enjoy fast driving.

Its a pre-requisite for all supporters of gods's own team

Never a true word spoken. All the waifs and strays think they are experts .

I had my booster jab back in October,but it doesn’t show on the NHS site,Iused the “ Covid)passport to go on holiday( 2 jabs) is this a new passport to get into games or do they need a newly issued one.

It’s when the consequences affect everyone else that the problem starts.
This choice plainly does.

How was it for people yesterday at Newcastle?

How was it for people yesterday at Newcastle?

They asked to show covid passport then they appeared to tick a box. Took 15 seconds if that.

Yeah was a surprisingly smooth process. Took alot quicker than expected - lets hope City are able to operate in the same manor come Boxing Day v Leicester.

You just present the 'domestic' pass. There's only one, it only appears after the 2nd jab.

Just received my email regarding making an appropriate declaration re COVID Pass and willingness not to attend if suffering "Signs & Symptoms".

Seems odd the confirmed Signs & Symptoms are for Delta variant and earlier being as we're in the middle of an Omicron Variant outbreak whose symptoms are different?

 

[kaz7]

According to some tools on the covid thread they arent bothering to get pcr tests , there will be loads not heeding warnings to stay at home if they have symptoms or positive test

Just completed my form - very straightforward. However, does anyone know what we do if we transfer a ticket to a 'friends and family' member? How do they complete a form?

Looks to me like they won’t as the club have said it’s our responsibility to make sure the other person is aware they need a covid pass etc.

Thank you Tonster,for your reply.I have the “passport”on my daughters phone and also on the NHS paper form.Hopefully either will be applicable.I thought I would need yet another for the 3rd jab.Obliged.
