Because we don’t force people to get all vaccines to travel. Requiring a vaccine passport for the covid vaccine forces people to get it, which is the real reason people are advocating for it.
We’ve had COVId vaccines for ages? Where you been hiding them?
So as per your wiki article no country is requiring them. So really not sure what you’re talking about. There are absolutely some vaccines required for travel, but COVID is not one of them. Just like influenza and a whole host of other vaccines.
I'm pro the passport thing, at least for travel, so life can go back to normal and I can say fly from UK to Italy and back without 5 pcr tests and 10 days isolating in spite of being basically immune. At least the EU are bringing them in in a couple of weeks and I imagine other countries will follow.
The EU one I think allows for immunity from catching covid so if you are anti vax and want to go that route you can.
Hey great! Then you should be allowed to get one to avoid those tests and the rest of us that doesn't want one should get subjected to the tests. I'm ok with that!
I don't get it, You are immune but you can still spread the virus. What is the difference between allowing someone who is vaccinated and someone who has covid without symptoms.
Vaccinated people are far less contagious for a far shorter time. As a result they represent a far lower risk of bringing the virus in or of helping community transmission once there.
At the time vaccine rollout began we weren’t sure of this effect, but the evidence from places like Israel is showing it pretty well.
