I don't want anyone to get corona tbh.
As far as vaccines go, it's easy to sit here and say "well, I don't think vaccines should be mandatory", but the truth is, there has to be consequences to not taking them, imo, if only because by not taking them, other people are being put in danger.
Do I think children of parents who refuse to vaccinate them should be allowed to go to schools and sit in classrooms full of children, some of which might not be able to be vaccinated, or might have ilnesses that compromise their immune systems? No.
Do I think healthcare workers should be allowed to care for the very young or very old without being vaccinated? No.
Flying on planes to their yearly vacation spot? No.
Do I think vaccines are 100% perfect? Actually no, I don't. But it strikes me as odd that the people who say "Covid only has a 1% fatality rate, it's not that big of a deal" will turn around and criticise vaccines which, if they're to believed, cause autism in much smaller numbers than 1%.
And to those people that say "well, you can't choose if you get covid", I would say this: you can sure as shit mitigate the risks by social distancing, washing your hands and wearing a mask. But the people who scream about autism in vaccines don't strike me as the kind of people that take covid seriously anyway, so...
TLDR: Your right to be an ******* isn't more valuable than my right to live.

So we're using the excuse that we're in a pandemic to infringe on peoples' rights?Government has no right to force people to inject themselves.
To argue otherwise, is insane.
No, they really shouldn't have the right to forcibly inject.
That doesn't mean there shouldn't be consequences to knowingly putting people in danger though.

I was onboard with Germany's "immunity passport" idea many months ago.
It's not enough to get a vaccine. You should prove you have the titer count to go with the vaccine. If you get the vaccine but have weak to no immunological response (little to no titer count), you shouldn't get that "travel passport" card.
I'm seeing ideas about "vaccine cards" for those who want to travel. That's not good enough. 5 out of 100 people fail to get appropriate levels of immunity from these new vaccines (pretty good result, yes, but that's a pretty huge percentage who can still infect others when they get ill).
What are your thoughts on this? Would you rather sit next to a person who has the antibodies that proves their immunity or a person who received the vaccine but has a 5% chance of still being a carrier?

I honestly don't think there's any kind of magic fix.
I mean, here in Ireland, it won't be a "i took the vaccine" kind of thing. If they actually follow through with it, it'll be more like "get a letter from your doctor" like you would if you were sick out of work something like that. A letter like that would cover eligibility either way.
But then of course, who's gonna bother enforcing something like that rigorously?
