COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Maybe you're right and im overthinking. I think it's fair to say that my trust in this government has absolutely and utterly eroded away. I just don't trust them one bit so probably fear the worst.

You are not alone with that one!!

Exactly. This kind of stuff will convert probably loads into conspiracy theorists. We literally do not need to vaccinate the whole country. Saw a poll that said over 60% will take it anyway immediately. That's easily enough, given how much its undoubtedly spread, to read herd immunity and stop it. Don't see the point in turning millions into conspiracy theorists by blackmailing them.

That theory sounds great if we shoot anyone trying to enter the country.

It doesn’t sound like it would be the government enforcing it - more a case of individual venues and businesses deciding. And like it or not, they do have a right to allow/refuse entry. I’m not sure I like that idea as there will be people with genuine concerns who don’t fall into the anti-vaxx conspiracy category, but on the flip side this is probably the only realistic way out of all this.

No.

Do you feel forced to have the yellow fever vaccine because you can't go to Brazil without it?

No I guess I just wouldn’t go to Brazil.

(if I hadn’t wanted to have the vaccine)

What happens if you genuinely can’t have the vaccine for some reason? Got to stay at home indefinitely.

 

[denislawsbackheel]

Thats been around for years with no side effect concerns,its proven.

Huge difference.

Not true.
It can have fatal side effects.
Very rare but they exist.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

It was a pathetic attempt too. Her agents and publicists done their best, but fooling no one.

Ooh, I'm sorry. Ten grand ? Who should I make it out too ?

What happens if you genuinely can’t have the vaccine for some reason? Got to stay at home indefinitely.

Not indefinately, but if enough take the vaccine eventually the cases will drop to a minimal level and businesses will become confident they can allow unvaccinated people in without risk, the more that get vaccinated the quicker that happens.
Personally think things like cinemas concert halls football stadium would ,when they can, provide the 20 minute test for those non vaccinated to be able to attend with a clear test.

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Is there any repercussions for people not having the vaccine?
In some countries its illegal isn't it for not having one?
