My mother works in the care industry and had been pressured into taking the vaccine, it wasnt overt (as it often isnt) it was subtle suggestive statements around the future employment and opportunities of those that are vaccinated

This is a hellish route we are going

What's the difference between that and CV19?
:rofl:

Let's add the flu jab to the list too- why not.

-The elderly/vulnerable are getting vaccinated and not dieing from covid as much
-We have come to the end of flu season so there will be less seasonal deaths in the old and the vulnerable

The country is locked indoors again, flu/cold season is coming to an end, everyone is wearing masks and the people that actually are at risk are being vaccinated

False equivalence.
We don't carry permits for Polio or Measles vaccines
It is nevertheless recorded!
Just like we don’t carry other certifications.

Try driving the shops without an insurance certificate

You will then be in a Queue for a vaccination and thankful of such a development

Ok, yep probably.... I still don't see the point you're trying to make? :lol:

Let me try this,
If I was 70 right now would I want to have the vaccine? Yes, but I wouldn't support the public shaming, tracking or labelling of those that didn't, primarily because them having the vaccine has absolutely zero impact on my safety or anyone else's it only effects that one person, as the vaccine does not prevent you from carrying and spreading the virus.

Another false equivalence, I understand what you're trying to do and why but you are completely misrepresenting the situation to paint it in a far better light.
