In the current climate vacations should be mandatory with consequences for those who don’t comply?

I 100% think they should for everyone’s benefit and health.

YABU - No they shouldn’t
YANBU - yes they should

Try harder 🙄

Hi OP do you mean vaccinations? If so they cannot be made compulsory as that would be classed as assault.

WitchesBritchesPumpkinPants · 02/12/2020 02:44

I wouldn't mind a holiday, not keen on them there American Vacations

TheClaws · 02/12/2020 02:44

Not everyone can have certain vaccinations, FYI.

TheClaws · 02/12/2020 02:45

But I would love mandatory vacation every now and then.

No, people have bodily autonomy. However, I do think being completely anti-vax particularly during a pandemic is a bit selfish (but I accept that people can reserve the right to be selfish when it comes to their own aforementioned bodily autonomy).

I prefer the OPs mandatory vacations- YANBU for that! But of course vaccination cannot be forced - we are not in North Korea thankfully.

Why would suggest a vacation in the middle of a pandemic? Just stay home ffs

Groovinpeanut · 02/12/2020 03:53

If it's vacations you meant, then yes they should be mandatory.

If it was vaccinations you meant, then no. People have the right to choose. Once people start to dictate what we can and cannot do with or to our bodies it's a slippery slope.

TheFormerPorpentinaScamander · 02/12/2020 03:58

Mandatory vacations you say?
Depends where and who's paying.

EveryDayIsADuvetDay · 02/12/2020 04:11

I'll go to Iceland (in the summer) please.
Bonus - low coronavirus

PhilCornwall1 · 02/12/2020 04:30
