Agreed!

Such an important issue might be best tested by putting it to a National Vote.

"Should those not taking the vaccine be excluded from all public gatherings?"

Maybe expanded to include all incomers, from abroad, etc.

As an aside, I see that the DT is saying that the vast majority, of those currently being hospitalised , are those who have not completed their vaccine.

"Just three people from those taken to hospital with the Indian Covid variant had been double vaccinated, the Health Secretary has revealed.

Matt Hancock told MPs that hospital cases were "broadly flat" and just three of the 126 people admitted with Covid from the Indian strain had received both doses of a vaccine. He added that 65 per cent of those who ended up in hospital with the Indian variant had not received a single jab.

"The jabs are working," he said. "The majority of people in hospital with Covid appear to be those who haven't had the vaccine at all."

Re: Vaccination Discrimination plans afoot....

I don't know if there will be rules for those who do and rules for those who don't BUT, as most of you know I'm at the Leisure Centre 5 days a week (mostly) and after my lengths I now sprawl in the jacuzzi (on my own) for a while. I used to use the Steam Room and Sauna each visit but I don't as I'm not sure it's safe yet. However once I do start again I would be VERY uneasy if I thought I was sharing it with somebody who had not had the vaccine.
