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.

Economic Impact and Productivity Loss: Mandating health passes could have negative economic consequences, particularly for industries that rely on low-wage workers or have high turnover rates. Implementing stringent vaccination requirements may lead to workforce shortages and productivity loss, further exacerbating economic inequalities and hindering recovery efforts.
@9JM7Q7911mos11MO
would you want to be around others inflected with a deathly illness and have no protection for yourself and your loved ones I dont really care tbh
@9GPH9981yr1Y
Allowing people to say no to the COVID Vaccine and still work with other people puts a lot of people at unnecessary risk and can even get people sick and killed. The vaccine is not an end-all-be-all to COVID, but it helps with reducing cases and how badly it affects people. The vaccine also makes public areas safer for babies and young kids, the elderly, and the immunocompromised.
@9FTH64S1yr1Y
I don't have to, the idea is stupid and only held by radical left morons who have no idea the problems they will have when the holder of office switches and makes their own demands of them that they don't agree with
@ISIDEWITH3yrs3Y
Yes
@9FTH64S1yr1Y
It's tyrannical bull **** and a slippery slope to the govt demanding whatever they please before you may be employed.
@9JVK6WJ10mos10MO
While proponents argue that health passes can help ensure workplace safety and prevent the spread of COVID-19, opponents argue that they could exacerbate existing inequalities and discrimination in the workplace.
One key concern is that implementing health passes could disproportionately impact certain groups, such as those who are unable to get vaccinated due to medical reasons, socioeconomic barriers, or personal beliefs. This could result in unequal access to employment opportunities and potentially lead to discrimination against individuals who are unable or unwilling to comply with vaccin… Read more
@9FQKMF21yr1Y
It is discriminatory to people who made a personal medical decision and the government has no right to force the population to comply with a medical procedure that was unproven at the time.
@9FBFBBW1yr1Y
It's unconstitutional and too authoritarian. People have irreversible individual rights that shouldn't be changed unless under martial law.
@9ZYVF3M3wks3W
I think that vaccinations against deadly diseases should be mandatory except with the cases of allergic reaction
@9ZRFBNY1mo1MO
The government should only require those working in industries such as services or any other that involves frequent close contact with the general public (i.e., people in restaurants and fast food, cab drivers, etc.). Whether people are required to be vaccinated in other industries should be up to the discretion of employers.
@9W7GNYV2mos2MO
I think that the government should mandate vaccines in healthcare and some other industries, and require vaccination in large enough numbers to spark herd immunity.
@9VY8CNN2mos2MO
No, but it should be heavily recommended and provided for free, and businesses that do not follow recommendation should be required post a highly visible warning and advisory that they have unvaccinated employees
@9QS3JGS6mos6MO
Covid vaccines should only be required depending upon your job, if you’re in the medical field if you’re a teacherz
if they don't want to be then let them, but if they get COVID they would have to pay for whatever they need having to do with COVID
@9HCP7QV1yr1Y
Under no circumstances should this have ever been permitted to have taken place.
The Nuremberg Code
The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.
This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved, as to enable him to make an understandin… Read more
Not required, but heavily recommended, and business can suspend or terminate someone who contracts a disease which could have been prevented via vaccination.
@9GZYG4J1yr1Y
No, Vaccine mandate are in violation of the universal declaration of bioethics and human rights and should therefore be prohibited.
@9GNXXXT1yr1Y
Yes, but do it through power of mandating it for air, train transit, and across borders, as well as attached to funding in the Canada Health Act.
@9FY56SG 1yr1Y
No, this is a violation of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms as well as the Basic Human Rights Act
@9FY43B61yr1Y
If they have a health issue that would make so they can't take the vaccine then no they shouldn't get vaccinated but everyone else should
@9FR442Y1yr1Y
No, the vaccine should not be mandated for anyone. People should have a right to choose whether or not they want the vaccine.
@9FDVB661yr1Y
Health care workers should
@9FD7JXT1yr1Y
People can do what they want, but cannot get mad from the repercussions
@9F9YT9G1yr1Y
yes but for any public health issues
@9F928G61yr1Y
No, People should be given accurate and correct information regarding the necessity of the COVID-19 vaccine and be allowed to make informed decisions best for them. However, At-risk employees should have the option to work 100% remotely to avoid contact with unvaccinated coworkers to lessen the chance of exposure to COVID-19 and other illnesses. This should be protected by law and enforced by the Government. Everyone deserves a safe place to work and live.
@9F5KMPV1yr1Y
Vaccinations are safe and help reduce disease. Vaccinations have done good for society. A person shouldn't be forced to be vaccinated.
@9F4F77YConservative1yr1Y
I say no because there have been studies that the vaccines have had more of a harmful impact on people than a benefit.
@9F3YN581yr1Y
Those who are safely eligible for the vaccine should be inoculated in order to provide herd immunity to the remaining citizens that are unable to receive the shots. Theres always going to be people against it and crazy conspiracies so it comes down to the individuals choice regardless.
@9DTTBXP1yr1Y
I believe no, unless there’s an epidemic or pandemic in which government needs to properly regulate
@9D4V5MC1yr1Y
No, vaccination is a personal choice and should not impact employment.
@9V646B93mos3MO
No, however it depends on the field of work and their closeness to clients. If you work in medical, yes
@9TPBP4D3mos3MO
While I support vaccination I do not think (especially now out of the pandemic) it should be a requirement.
@9TN6ZYV3mos3MO
The vaccination on employees should be controlled only by the company not the government. Existing employees from prior to any company policy change should be grandfathered in such that it is not a requirement unless a new contract is signed or they choose freely.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What are your main concerns, if any, about mandatory health passes in the workplace?
@9W2M2H5New Democratic2mos2MO
It is important and isn't something to be frowned upon.
@9TCTT4X3mos3MO
Depending on the business and job title - is this in healthcare? does the person work from home? different circumstances.
@9T72SVL4mos4MO
Yes, But only to those who can safely take vaccination and masking should still be highly encouraged for the safety of those at high risk
@9SLJBJV4mos4MO
Required for those working with vulnerable people (those looking after children, teachers, community support workers, anyone in any level of care facility…medical office, hospital, long term care).
@9RZPX675mos5MO
no, covid requirements were the greatest breach of our charter rights and stances, any covid mandates should be heavily criminalized
@9QZGVST5mos5MO
Yes, the government should require ALL citizens, residents, and visitors to be vaccinated from COVID, with exemptions for medical reasons signed off on by a doctor in their medical records.
@9LMCHCFConservative8mos8MO
No if a private business is going to mandate a vaccination should be at the directive of the company with no meaningful influence from the government.
@9LD8F4Q9mos9MO
No, bodily autonomy and freedom from medical coercion is a fundamental human right enshrined by the Nuremberg Code.
@9BRNCGJ2yrs2Y
No, and anyone who requires vaccines should face prison time or death penalty
@9BM59652yrs2Y
Yes, only to prevent lies and chaos from ensuing.
@96CYY9K2yrs2Y
If the employees want to be vaccinated from COVID they can but if not, it should not be forced upon them.
@9679ZMM2yrs2Y
Yes but they should understand if people can't because of medical reasons and still let them work
@964GHFB2yrs2Y
Vaccination is a personal decision, period.
@964DSXDNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Depends on how often the large businesses are coming directly into contact with people at high risk (i.e nursing homes)
@95ZZP2S2yrs2Y
It should not be required, per se, but there should be penalties for those who remain unvaccinated.
@95YS33B2yrs2Y
Yes, unless employee has had serious adverse affects to previous vaccinations or other health issues
@95K5YQG2yrs2Y
Yes, but I don't think that we can actively force businesses to have employees that are vaccinated. I think we should make it hard for people not to be vaccinated by making vaccines mandatory to travel, and cross the border, so that people understand that this is a dangerous virus that is affecting many groups of people, but I think that the government would be challenged in court if they were to actively do this.
@958MGXP2yrs2Y
If they are not medically safe to intake it then no.
@94CXG6G2yrs2Y
No, and it should be made illegal by businesses or governments to obligate it and it should be illegal to fire employees based on vaccination status.
@94BHNP52yrs2Y
Vaccinations are a personal choice.
@93WXGY32yrs2Y
Leave it up to the buisness in question. There should be no government mandate.
@93TM7X62yrs2Y
No, ban this practise, medical information should be private only.
@937LMWD3yrs3Y
no, Not the job of government to regulate this aspect of business
@936KWVL3yrs3Y
It should be up to the individual whether the get vaxxed or not
Yes, but only health care workers
@92PC7R43yrs3Y
no, I think its a personal choice
@9285VQ6New Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes, but exceptions should be allowed for extenuating circumstances, such as minors in the work-force whose parents did not allow them to receive the vaccine and people with health conditions which also prevent them from doing so.
@8ZW9VPK3yrs3Y
it is the employee's choice
@8ZTMNF73yrs3Y
Only under a public health order.
@8ZSJL5B3yrs3Y
No, this would be coercive and would violate the Nuremberg Code. These are not vaccines, they are gene therapies masquerading as vaccines for profit and depopulation agenda of the globalists and the Great Reset. Abolish and criminalize asking for someone's personal health information.
@8ZR8QDRConservative3yrs3Y
No, the choice should be up to the individual, not business or government.
@8ZFWNWG3yrs3Y
yes, unless health reasons prevents vaccinations
@8Z8JMYQ3yrs3Y
Yes, but only for businesses that provide health care/cross provinces/ or where contact in a vulnerable setting is unavoidable.
@8Z7J25N3yrs3Y
Yes, but with the proviso of medical exemptions still being valid.
Private companies should be free to decide on their own.
@8Z36SQ73yrs3Y
The employees vaccination status should only be a concern of the employer, if the employer wants/requires their employees to be vaccinated then by all means. If the employer doesn't care or doesn't deem it nessicary then it shouldn't be an issue.
@8Z2Y9RRNew Democratic3yrs3Y
No. Business should require unvaccinated employees to work from home or wear masks during a pandemic wave with high rates of hospitalization. Government should invest in health care to sustain pandemic waves.
@8YJRSXRConservative3yrs3Y
Absolutely not. This is coercion and violates bodily autonomy and goes against freedom.
@8YJKZFV3yrs3Y
Yes, the government should require everyone to be vaccinated against COVID
Let private companies decide on their own.
@8YFKFCP3yrs3Y
Mandate for people that work within consistent close contact with others
@8Y3NP9F3yrs3Y
Give them the option of a test for every 2 weeks or a vaccine.
@8XZC2RV3yrs3Y
Yes its a liability that they cannot afford
@8XXXYKS3yrs3Y
Every show be vaccinated
@8XQGLKC3yrs3Y
Government and Businesses should not discriminate anyone and shouldn't have any access to medical information of a person.
@8XKT3BG3yrs3Y
No, nobody have the right to ask if you are vaccinated or not since that information is part of a private medical file and is not your personal Doctor of choice and have not make the Hippocratic Oath and no individual have any obligation or contract to reveal such information.
No, as the vaccine has proven to be ineffective and there has not been any long term studies on the health impacts
@8XH88Q43yrs3Y
@8XCDZYT3yrs3Y
No, this is coercive and violates people's bodily autonomy and this will not be sustainable for people who cannot be vaccinated for medical, religious or conscientious reasons.
@8X452LT3yrs3Y
Everyone should have the right to choose what they want to do with their own bodys and not be shamed for that decision
@8X2LCJJ3yrs3Y
They should be obliterated for assisting the capitalist pigs
@8WZL4243yrs3Y
Yes, and Anti-Vaxers should be disqualified for Employment Insurance.
@8WDX46K3yrs3Y
Yes, unless there is a medical condition that prevents them from being vaccinated.
@8WDVTS33yrs3Y
People should have an option to get vaccinated.
@8WDBZJS3yrs3Y
if they want to just keep clean.
@8WCXXF23yrs3Y
No, I think it depends on each situation on its own.
@8WCQQNCNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes, but only for in-person employees
@8WCMYTX3yrs3Y
No, but be alert of infection symptoms and practice proper hygiene and citizen ethic.
@8WCL4NP3yrs3Y
no because people could loose there job
@8WCF5QS3yrs3Y
If it isn’t the health field then no
@8WC7RRR3yrs3Y
Depending on the situation and type of job, yes.
@8WC7DLDNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Depends on the type of job they have. If they work with directly with people, then yes.
That's the choice of the small business owners, not the politicians. big businesses though, yes.
