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.

Ideology:
@Steven0960 1yr1Y
Soft mandate: Vaccine and/or get tested once or twice a week
@95YRDML2yrs2Y
Yes, or proof of recent negative test
@spaceUnicorn018Meretz2yrs2Y
Yes, but only on those positions that require constant interactions with public
@922N7TN3yrs3Y
Yes, but only if offered the alternative of free weekly tests
@926DM4T3yrs3Y
I don't think the government should, and neither should businesses require it. But if they had incentives for if they got vaccinated it would push more people to get it.
@9268MXG3yrs3Y
No, but I think it should be the company's choice if they want their workers to get vaccinated or not.
@92HSWP33yrs3Y
It should be optional, whoever decides what’s best for their body.
@92BNW5C3yrs3Y
people have the right to choose
@92JCZ6T3yrs3Y
No, allow businesses to make that decision, but allow the people to sue businesses if they get COVID due to policies made by said business.

@92JPPN53yrs3Y
This is a choice to be made by private companies.
@7BS56YX3yrs3Y
Give employees the option of getting vaccinated or being tested weekly
@92V7DJZ3yrs3Y
No, because not every willingly wants to get vaccinations. Many people dont belive in getting vaccinations.
@8ZH59GG3yrs3Y
No, businesses or government should force vaccination on people just incase it goes against religious values.
@9334YP33yrs3Y
No, the government should require their own employees and those of any business that receives any kind of government funding or benefits, to be unvaccinated against COVID.
@934JP2Z3yrs3Y
yes, with medical exemptions for those who literally cannot take the vaccine for medical reasons.
@936XZ9R3yrs3Y
Yes, but not for remote employees
Deleted3yrs3Y
No, but unvaccinated employees should be tested daily.
@932NCG93yrs3Y
i feel like it should be up to the employee
Deleted3yrs3Y
Yes, the government must enforce authoritarian measures specifically to prevent further COVID-19 deaths
@8YT6XX73yrs3Y
It depends, if you have been getting sick in the environment then it might be the best choice to make sure your workers are vaccinated. Although with the new variant, vaccinated people are getting sick. I don't really know
@8YTLLK53yrs3Y
Yes, and businesses should have the power to employees receive a vaccination if they don't already have one
@4M78YV63yrs3Y
No. I think vaccination decisions need to be left up to the individual company. Interfering with a companies decision what to do with their employees disrupts the free market and competition within industries
@923HP453yrs3Y
it depends on the company
@8WG92P33yrs3Y
No, but businesses should be required to give payed leave to anyone who tests positive for covid19 until they are fit to work again
@49VGR683yrs3Y
No. Personal medical decisions should remain that; personal. Anything else is further erosion of individual freedoms.
@8WCNGDT3yrs3Y
They should be allowed to

@8WCYPDT3yrs3Y
no, the decision to be vaccinated or not should be up to the individual
@8X3KQBN3yrs3Y
Yes, but only if the employee does not have immune diseases to where a COVID-19 vaccine could seriously harm them, those employees should just be kept as healthy as possible.
@8ZK5HYT3yrs3Y
No, and all businesses should not be allowed to require the vaccination of their employees
@8WBMHFF3yrs3Y
@8WBK4V73yrs3Y
Yes for all personnel except those with valid medical exemptions
@8WB2PT63yrs3Y
Everyone has their own beliefs/opinions let people decide if they want it or not and don't punish them/ make them get it because they need the job.
@924BCVX3yrs3Y
No its the person’s decision. Shoukd not be made for them.
@93VVP972yrs2Y
No, This is an overreach of the Federal government
@8ZLY3LD3yrs3Y
The Government should maintain mask mandates for non-vaccinated citizens, but a vaccine mandate should be up to the employer
@8XJ2X3P3yrs3Y
No, I think that it should be up to the company.
@8VC2Q883yrs3Y
No, but all large businesses should be required to adopt a mask mandate policy if they refuse to require vaccines
@8ZJPFVX3yrs3Y
The gov should not REQUIRE the employee to be vaccinated, they should let them to choose by themselves cause may be there are some people are arligic to the COVID vaccinated and some people may feel unwell after they have been vaccinated because of their own 'long time sickness' like diabities and heart attack.
If the employees dont vaccinated , will they be fired because of these reason???
That's crazy...and so not fair
@8SFDLS63yrs3Y
Yes, schools require children to get the flu shot, why not require businesses to require the COVID-19 shot?
@8ZLD3MT3yrs3Y
I feel as though it hasn’t been tested on very many people before they started having people get it so I feel you should be able to get it as an employee if only you want to get it
@8WBLZHW3yrs3Y
They should be able too if they want to without government interference.
@92SYWMQ3yrs3Y
No, It should be the employees choice
@8WCQKS23yrs3Y
No, Everyone should have a choice.
@8YVSZXQ3yrs3Y
Depends on the amount of in person contact in said businesses but generally for healthcare, social work, type stuff government should require it
@6Q2LC7Q3yrs3Y
Yes, but include the option for a negative COVID test within the last three days.
@DengekiMatsuko2yrs2Y
No, but the company can require at least weekly tests or wearing a mask
@DengekiMatsuko3yrs3Y
No, but the government should require employees of large businesses either wear a mask or get weekly tests.
@7GP32QV3yrs3Y
No, and ban the private sector from instituting vaccine mandates
@77JF5QJ3yrs3Y
No, vaccines should not be required for COVID
@7CPSVB23yrs3Y
No, only businesses in frontline industries like healthcare, public safety, and education. But allow for medical exemptions or with proof of antibodies.
@7YY64YV3yrs3Y
Regardless, businesses should be able to make vaccination a condition of employment or not.
@8BPPSCV3yrs3Y
Yes, As long as it doesn't go against someone's religion or culture.
@89Q2P3Z3yrs3Y
If the employee/patient qualifies for the vaccine and does not have any outstanding religious or medical exemptions, yes.
@8F8D9G33yrs3Y
No, neither the government nor businesses have the right to mandate/require vaccinations.
@8FCV27F2yrs2Y
No, but vaccination should be greatly incentivised.
@8TB798W3yrs3Y
It should be left to the individual choice of each business.
@8VB2YHK3yrs3Y
No, but the government should require vaccination for public employees.
@8VL9DP43yrs3Y
Yes, unless somebody can't for a medical reason or they are fully vaccinated.
@8W9T9JR3yrs3Y
depends on what the job is
@8WB2VFL3yrs3Y
No, because its still so unknown and so if people arent ready to be vaccinated then they just have to suffer the conciquences of covid the hard way
@8WBJ79M3yrs3Y
Yes if you don't have some preexisting condition that stops you from getting the vaccine.
@8WCQCL83yrs3Y
what they think is best for them
@8WCQCNF3yrs3Y
i believe he shouldnt because there is alot of people dying with the shot so why anot let people decide if they want it or not.
@8WCQCWQ3yrs3Y
yes becaue it will be better pay
@8WCSLXW3yrs3Y
Yes but only for essential workers
@8WBMHDX3yrs3Y
No, my mom would get mad at me
@8WBMHFW3yrs3Y
Yes, so the food is not contaminated and spread the virus to other people.
@8W949N63yrs3Y
They can do whatever they want. They are a private business and shouldn't be forced to enforce vaccines. There should be great incentives though.
@8W9NRSM3yrs3Y
I dont think so because people should have the freedom to choose what goes into their body, but if they refuse to get the vaccine they should be required to wear a mask
@8WBB2WS3yrs3Y
no, people can make their own decisions, but they should wear a mask if not vaccinated.
@8WCYNMS3yrs3Y
they should all be vaccinated and wear mask just to keep it sefe
@8WCYPGV3yrs3Y
I think you shouldn't be required to get any kind of vaccine.
@8WBSX733yrs3Y
should have a choice of getting or a choice of not shouldnt be forced
@8WCV5PD3yrs3Y
I believe that the vaccination should be required but there are certain exemptions that may prohibit someone from getting it which wouldn't be fair if they were still required by government.
@8WF79QB3yrs3Y
No because it should be the peoples choice what they want to do with their body.
@8WDJ2P33yrs3Y
I feel as if yall need to mind yall business and stop trying to make laws to require working people to get he vaccine,everybody reacts different (thousands of people have died.)
@8WCLWZ93yrs3Y
Businesses are free to do what they wish, but the government should not be involved.
