Should the coronavirus vaccine be mandatory

[trimmer21]

I wonder why it hasn't occurred to anyone that all these folks that are testing positive spiking the stats may have already had the antibodies and a natural immunity?

The anti-body tests are a blood test....the Covid test is looking for the virus itself in your nasal passage.

Back on topic: these are interested:

In Italy, politicians are worried about public resistance and are debating whether to make inoculations compulsory for workers such as civil servants and medical personnel. Surveys have shown that significant parts of the population are wary of getting the shot.

Like most of Europe, Italy’s official line is that getting the vaccine is a personal choice. But if voluntary uptake remains low, “we will have to adopt some countermeasures,” Deputy Health Minister Pierpaolo Sileri said in an interview with the La Stampa newspaper on Tuesday.

Spain, one of the European nations hit hardest by the coronavirus, announced on Monday that it will track people who refuse to get inoculated with COVID-19 vaccines.

Spain will share its register of unvaccinated citizens with other European governments, but it won’t be made public and the names will be “treated with the utmost respect for data protection,” Health Minister Salvador Illa said.

In the first quarter, Austria is rolling out an electronic vaccination certificate in which patients and authorities can keep immunization records, Health Minister Rudolf Anschober told journalists in Vienna. The country plans to support its Covid-19 vaccine efforts with an information campaign.

“We won’t convince fierce anti-vaxxers, but I do see many who are undecided,” he said.

Starting to get the idea that this is becoming a 'us and them' wedge being driven into society...

Plenty of time to wait and see how the UK and the USA fare with vaccines. They can go first - test it for us Canadians. Science is science...vaccines work. Remember chicken pox and measles? I don't. I got vaccinated and never got them. Same with Polio and Mumps. They were all pretty serious back in my parents days. But hey - lets see if it works in places like California and Florida. By the time the average Joe Canadian can get a shot, we should be able to see some results from other places first. In the mean-time, stay safe, wear a mask and get outdoors where life is pretty normal in the bush.

Here is an interesting statement from the WHO, if anyone is listening to them anymore.

In summary, they predict COVID will eventually be as prevalent in society as the common cold (also coronaviruses) despite vaccinations and other efforts to stop the spread.

That tells me the don't have much faith in any of these vaccines either.

CTV News: WHO predicts COVID-19 will become endemic, but some experts are less certain.

Judging by polls like this and actual public opinion, many do not want the vaccine and I bet even more don't want it forced

What other countries have had travel passes, permission papers, closed religious centres, restrictions on gatherings, "government assistance", shuttered small businesses, political/ social group witch hunts and limited access to goods and services?

How about the numerous people who have gone out for and signed up for a test, went home after waiting hours of waiting without a test and then they get a call saying that they tested positive???

Wife and I just had our shots this evening. Registered Thursday for them.
