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
A vaccinated Australia means for efficiency in all we do. We don’t want to be set back by people who could potentially catch this virus and spread it around. Another lockdown can shut down international trade with Australia, turning our country into anarchy

@9F5TBD72yrs2Y
The vaccine efficacy severely drops after a short amount of time making the vaccine effectiveness useless. Natural immunity will always Trump any artificial immunity. 1 in 800 people have been vaccine injured so why continue to push something that doesn't work.
@ISIDEWITH4yrs4Y
No, I think businesses should require vaccination but not by government mandate
@9GXWS5N1yr1Y
Are you willing to risk your family's health for that? If your child is unvaccinated because they are too young or have health defects prior are you ok with them dying because your coworker refused to get the vaccine.
Legislation to have business that don’t require vaccination for all their employees declare it for the safety of clients
@9VMQBTM7mos7MO
your just silly get a better opinion lmao hope you cant vote
@92LTWLD3yrs3Y
Yes, but people who have religious beliefs that don't allow it should be excluded.
@B4PBNFQ1wk1W
No, no government entity or governing body should ever have the right to dictate what someone does with their body.
@B4MRGKJ2wks2W
Applies to all vaccines: businesses can mandate them, but there should be exceptions for anyone who has real medical grounds.
@B4BSKMW3wks3W
I think everyone should have freedom in choice and the government should stay out of people’s health choices, the government is not a health professional organisation!
@B4BM7VC3wks3W
I think this is a very case by case basis. I don't think that COVID is very relevant any more, but in the event of a nother pandemic it may be necessary to require vaccination again.
No, but I think employees that work with vulnerable people should be vaccinated eg schools, healthcare
No, but they should have strict COVID policies for staff who work in commercial premises to prevent spreading infection
@B48BZN64wks4W
depends on the business, people who directly work with people with imuno-defense issues or those more likely to get sick and get infections should get vaccinated but for places like Mcdonalds it shouldn't matter
@B3Y8Q6D 1mo1MO
No, but i think they should have to publicly display that they do not require employees to be vaccinated so people can choose whether to do business with them
@B2QYDMC3mos3MO
This is difficult as some people cannot get the vaccine, and it is important to acknowledge that some people cannot access it, and some have trauma around this. Education is the most important.
@B3QHWFSOne Nation 2mos2MO
I really think the decision of being vaccinated is for our people to decide not the government. And it’s to be found that you guys made the vaccine to depopulate our country and city’s!
@B3KM69D2mos2MO
No, I think neither the government or business is entitled to mandate a person to undergo any medical treatment what so ever, including vaccination of any description.
@B3BMGW72mos2MO
This should be standardised, but should also allow room for people who cannot get vaccinated due to auto-immune diseases that could harm their health.
@B38XXHM2mos2MO
If businesses include healthcare work or other customer facing essential services, I think employees should have _all_ vaccines, including COVID.
@B358G682mos2MO
Yes, the Government should mandate that all employees of large businesses receive a booster vaccine for Covid 19.
@B34PDRQ2mos2MO
No, but i think it should be a requirement to be tested regularly if they are not willing to get vaccinated. And if they test positive they will not be allowed to come in until negative.
If there rates increase and another Pandemic occurs then I think for the safety of the vulnerable in our community mandate vaccines are appropriate.
@B2WGS2X2mos2MO
Depending on the industry and the nature of their business proceedings. All healthcare, hospitality, food retail and education workers should be vaccinated against all common contagious diseases.
@9ZM933G5mos5MO
NO ONE should be forced medical treatments for employment. NO ONE!!! Government should not be making business the big bad daddy in this. It should be choice of the business owner and its employees, not the government to find tactics to coerce and enforce something you want but the people do not!!! You are looking for ways to cripple people who do not deserve it.
The same typical, government breaks your legs, gives you a wheelchair and tells you how lucky you are to have a wheelchair! It should be illegal for government to coerce by any means!!! Anyone government official who even suggests another company should be considered as a tool for coercion should be sacked for even thinking on treating its people as further guinea pigs.
A risk-based approach should be taken to the question of required vaccinations, as determined by the business.
No but they should sign a form about taking responsibility for potential harm caused to their peers.
No, getting vaccinated should be by choice not enforced, unless there is an outbreak in the business they work in.
Yes, it should be, however medical issues and religious beliefs and financial statuses should be respected
@9H7CPBW1yr1Y
The government shouldn't mandate it, only businesses should as it is easier to manage within businesses. Its also a choice and even though it impacts certain people, forcing people to take it is not the best.
No, they should be vaccinated from other things but it should be opptional for them to get COVID vaccine.
@9FS9N652yrs2Y
Yes I believe employees of large business should be vaccinated from COVID but if people have a medical issue (with a provided medical certifficate) they can have an exemption from the vaccine.
@9FHT8L32yrs2Y
Personal choice like other vaccines
@9DXY7HB2yrs2Y
Depending on how much interaction the business has with others, including people who have health risks
Not until the vaccine is proven to be safe
@9DNJPSJ2yrs2Y
People should make their own choices on wether to get vaccinated for COVID - employers and the Government should have no say - there is mounting evidence that the vaccine did very little really and so the Government should focus on things that improve the country
Any health sector job should be vaccinated.
@92XQVHM3yrs3Y
It’s choice of what people want to put in their body
@92XGFKS3yrs3Y
No, it’s unconstitutional to force people to be vaccinated to work
@92WH8Z53yrs3Y
No, vaccinations should be by choice.
@92WC6H2Liberal Democrat3yrs3Y
Vaccination should be a personal decision and no one should be victimised for not having or having any vaccination
@927G2PY3yrs3Y
No, nobody should be coerced into being vaccinated for their job/livelihood. We should be able to have body autonomy.
@9VYT3NC6mos6MO
Especially now that Covid-19 has decreased the vaccine should not be mandatory as the vaccine has shown to have ever lasting problems on people, some of the problems are small whilst others are life-threatening. The goverment should not require the empolyees of large businesses to be vaccinated if they don't want to.
@9VGJ3G47mos7MO
You should be able to choose if you want to get vaccinated rather than being fired for not wanting a vaccine that barely even works.
Yes, but only if they wish to, and if they deny the vaccination, they should be under cautioun from spreading the disease.
@9SQ56QG8mos8MO
Employees should have, like their right to freedom of speech, the right in saying what goes into their body and what does not. As long as they are not a threat to those around them, they should not be vaccinated without it being their will.
I think it’s up to the individual but I think more research should be done on the disease itself before stamping of vaccination
@9RXHPTY9mos9MO
No, I think everyone should require to be vaccinated irrespective of large / small businesses or unemployed.
Hire others that are vaccinated over others only if the merit of both individuals is similar (last priority)
@9MYFHGP11mos11MO
Yes, unless they can provide a genuine reason supported by their doctor as to why they cannot get the vaccine.
@9DZRS922yrs2Y
yes but give them a choice.
@9VGJ3GN7mos7MO
You should be able to choose if you want to be vaccinated rather than being fired for not wanting a vaccine that barely even works.
@9F66HN62yrs2Y
people that can get vaccinated should but people who have serious health conditions shouldn't be required
I believe that everyone has their own choice
@9D2F67H2yrs2Y
Yes, only if the business is recognised as a facility which holds many jobs in one building or more.
@99ZBCFD2yrs2Y
Depends on what the company does
@99YPXP72yrs2Y
@99X5ZFM2yrs2Y
Should be up to the business
@99X39YS2yrs2Y
No it’s up to the business operator
I think it is up to them
@96FT32M3yrs3Y
No, but they should let people know that they don't have the vaccine.
@96DS9TL3yrs3Y
i think its a choice weather they want to or not
@967ZZPY3yrs3Y
It should have always been a personal choice.
people and businesses should have a choice to get vaccinated
@966W5P23yrs3Y
I am comfortable with how it is
Risk categories should be established to determine what industries should have mandatory vaccination like in nursing/medical.
@96246FF3yrs3Y
I am pro vacation but wouldn’t want anyone to be forced into it
@95WS5933yrs3Y
Covid vaccination requirements should be based on medical advice.
@95S5PJY3yrs3Y
Depends on the business and how often they interact with high risk people eg elderly/kids Age care yes Supermarket yes Warehousing no
@95J8QC63yrs3Y
Mandatory unless you cannot vaccinated
I think it should be optional to whoever takes it
no, it's a basic human right to decide what you put in your body and businesses shouldn't make it mandatory to be able to work there.
all people should vaccinate unless medical reasoning
@95DL47J3yrs3Y
Yes it protects everyone
It should be required, however, unless medical requirements/ religious do not allow this
@94BNLBW3yrs3Y
@944KFHF3yrs3Y
No, but those who have COVID should not go to work.
@942VKVG3yrs3Y
Yes, but only do not include those who have unique health problems concerning the side effects of vaccines.
@93WCWMV3yrs3Y
Depends on the business and the intersection between employees and the common man
Yes, unless they have a valid reason for an exemption
@93D3SMX3yrs3Y
No, no one should require a vaccine if they don't wish to take it.
@93B23X43yrs3Y
It should be encouraged, but people should not be exempt from a a workplace or a career if they do not vaccinate considering vaccinated people can carry and spread diseases all the same.
@9383K2P3yrs3Y
They should but not mandatory
Yes unless it would cause harm to the individual
Vaccines should be required with the exception of medical reasons
@934S6LZ3yrs3Y
Depends on the businesses. Anything relating to vulnerable people and health care should be mandated.
@934RTJ43yrs3Y
Yes or have a valid reason to not be vaccinated
@934QKRQ3yrs3Y
I think vaccinations should be required but not if an individual cannot be vaccinated due to medical reasons
@934Q27D3yrs3Y
Only if you work with vunerable people
@934PSSZ3yrs3Y
People have the right over what happens to their body.
@934MVM43yrs3Y
I think that it should be required for caring for high risk patients
@934JY6SIndependent3yrs3Y
The government shouldn't require anyone to be vaccinated if they don't wish to be! It's a personal choice, not a government decision! No one should be forced, large business or small business, general public etc.
@934JVCY3yrs3Y
Everyone should have a choice if they get it.
@934J2B63yrs3Y
I think our government should start over with Covid.
Do a documentary. One that takes extreme ownership of all the lies.
Explain the actual truths.
Only the. Will people truly be onboard.
After that everyone who isn’t crazy will get vaccinated.
@9349TRSIndependent3yrs3Y
No, vaccinations should be by personal choice for all businesses, and stay home if you are sick.
Who cares what others choose regarding their health? Equally it’s my view that those who don’t vaccinate themselves should be considered less of a priority in the health care system.
