Would you support the vaccine being mandatory?

If there was a guarantee life would get back to normal

No, and I have absolutely no time for anti vaxxers.

Yes for people who work in care homes.

No.

I would want to know what percentage don’t want it first! Everyone I know is dying to have it.

No. We are not living in a dictatorship

No. I'm so far down the list if it were mandatory I'd never get one!

But in all seriousness, no. I have no time for anti-vaxxers but do believe you should have the ultimate say about what gets put in your body. No matter how wise or unwise that decision is.

No.

And I am totally in support of vaccines, and volunteered for the vaccine trials.

No.

No, and I think people who don’t have it without a good reason (i.e. medical reasons) are misguided and rather selfish. Ultimately up to them though.

Absolutely not.

No.

No.

No

I think antivaxxers are misguided and dangerous, but I do not think any medical intervention, including vaccination, should be on the basis of anything but informed consent (from patient or parent, or someone acting in patient's best interests if incapable of giving consent - close kin or experienced doctor)

Nope

No

No

@Chickenkatsu

Yes for people who work in care homes.

As if we don't get paid little enough as it is with no respect, we'd have to trade autonomy over our own bodies to keep our jobs.

Oh hang on - you sound like my old employer.

Absolutely NOT.

And me and mine will be getting it.

No.
Who would be giving the guarantee?

No, at the moment.
If later on it turns up that people who did not have the vaccine are passing it to others, leading to more mutations or similar, something that is proven to be against public health, then I would think about it.
I reckon a massive number of people will have it.

No. How would it really work anyway. Get the police to detain people and pin them down if they refused?

I do think that people who refuse the vaccination without valid medical reason, should be offered (but not forced) to sign an agreement declining medical treatment if they contract covid, or at least have a discussion and propose what they did want to happen if they contracted covid.

I suspect mandatory vaccination won’t be necessary and I don’t believe that it should be compulsory anyway.... although more and more I can see the appeal.

No from me too. I can't be doing with anti vaxxers either but I don't want to live in a society where people don't have the right of choice.

No
