Vaccine pass better than a mandatory order, says French govt spokesmanreuters.com/world/europe/mandatory-order-not-way-encourage-covid-19-vaccinations-france-says-govt-2022-01-09/
It's hard to believe, but sometimes you almost think they really don't get it. As if this is a problem of "doubt" or "hesitancy". Or even "access", LOL. As if people still sit there, after more than half a year since vaccines became available for all age groups, thinking: "Oh man I'm still not sure, should I get it or not??? Hmm, maybe if I only had to walk 10 minutes instead of drive..."
There is this thing called the Vaccination Doubt Hotline that you can call with questions and they give you the "facts". But in fact 2/3 of the calls they get are double-vaccinated people asking about the sense of boosters. There's your doubt and hesitancy.
Actually mandatory vaccination would be an extremely efficient way if their goal was really just to reach a >98% vaccine uptake. It would be ethically and morally bankrupt, but if vaccinating everyone was your real goal, and nothing else, then the most efficient way to do it would be to stop pussyfooting around and just make it mandatory. If you really believed that it was a virus so deadly that even the healthy, even those who have already had the virus, should still get vaccinated, then that's an ethical shortcut that you could easily take. What's a person going to do if there is a fine of, say, €3,000 for "walking/driving while unvaccinated"?
The fact is they're not doing this in most countries, and even in Austria and Germany, they are already backpedalling it. They are so full of sh*it. Still terrified of legal liability, moral responsibility, and having to send the police to enforce this in the Muslim and black outer cities. And then again for the boosters.
