In September 2021 Italy became the first European Country to make COVID-19 health passes mandatory for all workers. By the end of the same month Canada, the United States, Australia, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia and Turkmenistan all announced similar vaccine mandates. Proponents of the mandate argue that these mandates are the only way to end the global COVID-19 pandemic. Opponents cite evidence that people who already have natural immunity are at heightened risk of vaccine side effects caused by an augmented inflammatory response.
Yes, unless there is a legitimate medical reason it cannot be given to a person such as allergies or other-drug interactions.
This should be against the law completely there is no case where the government should be allowed to say what we put in our bodies.
@9ZJ2ZTB2mos2MO
Government should mandate it for public servants. I support vaccines but a business orientated requirement misses too many people.
@9ZHV2WT2mos2MO
Better inform people on the pros & cons and encourage them to be vaxed, if they are told they HAVE to some will protest, make them see its not scary
@9Z9Z22VSocial Democrats2mos2MO
I think businesses should ask that employees get vaccinated for X,Y and Z reasons and that employees should make this decision for themselves.
@9Z997FSSocial Democrats2mos2MO
Yes, save for exceptions of people who might be endangered by receiving the vaccine (eg. immunocompromised people).
@9YMXRXM2mos2MO
For health care professionals/anyone working in close contact with others eg. Nursing home workers, physios, etc
@9YKHJPJ2mos2MO
I think it should be mandatory for the employees to be educated on the vaccines but not made mandatory to get them if they don’t want to
@9SWMJY6Independent4mos4MO
It should be down to the business at the end of the day but our healthcare is public so allowing abuses of Health and Safety by those not caring shouldn't be allowed as it would literally cost the tax payer. I think businesses should be monitored but not in the sense of the morality but their community backing, a business that doesn't care about it's worker should be penalised but it's a slippery slope that would be difficult to manage.
I believe vaccines to employees should be mandated, but people should be screened for possible side-effects if necessary.
@8XSVGX7Social Democrats3yrs3Y
No, the government should re-examine it's public health messaging and make successful appeals by addressing the concerns of the unvaccinated, however unscientifically based they may be. If the government wants people to be vaccinated it should persuade, and if necessary pay, those who refuse.
@8XH8GRH3yrs3Y
@8WZVJ5Q3yrs3Y
No because it’s a personal choice
@8WCTYXP3yrs3Y
It depends on the nature of the business. Ones where person-to person- contact is large (such as professions where someone sees many clients in a day) yes. If it is mostly the same people who see each other every day, no.

@9BFKDKS2yrs2Y
Yes, unless they are 100 percent work-from-home.
@98N6N2K2yrs2Y
No, it goes against the individuals rights. You can't force someone to have a medical procedure.
@8ZML6RY3yrs3Y
No as it is the businesses choice
No, but businesses can themselves require employees to be vaccinated.
@8YJ3GSD3yrs3Y
not require vaccines, but highly encourage them
@92H34T53yrs3Y
Depends on the type of bussiness
