Give over. A vaccine that has been rushed to the table and not tested as much as normal and you want to punish people for not taking it - really?

What is selfish is expecting people to simply accept an injection without full qualification

Seems pretty simple, until about 70% of the population is vaccinated and we have herd immunity, you either take the vaccine and get to move about freely and socialise or you dont take the vaccine and stay in socially distanced/isolated conditions.

You're free to make the choice.

You're not free to go around killing people by spreading a virus because you don't understand how vaccines and testing/approval works.

I'm not suggesting people should be punished for not taking it, but I'm not sure that it is 'not tested as much as normal'. The numbers of people in the pahse 3 trials are probably not dissimilar to other vaccines, the main difference is the time scale to get the results available which is due to the epidemic nature of the disease. The testing is as normal but the time scale is shorter.

if the vaccine isn't legally enforced, this never gets off the ground. Ever.

But its been tested to some standards, which is more than can be said for your Donald duck should you get landed with Covid. Just playing devil's advocate here, but in all likelihood I'd probably take my chances with the vaccine.

Just give people a card when they get their vaccine and you can show it when going to bars/pubs/restaurants/cinemas etc.

No different to leaving your track and trace details.

Or you could even integrate it into the app.

If you read the post that I responded to, you would notice your reply to me is so far from that being discussed, but well done for jumping in
