Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Mandatory vaccinations: Three reasons for and against
It’s been nearly two years since the first outbreak of the coronavirus was publicly reported. It is still under the threat of a new variant even vaccination rate has reached 70% or higher in some countries. Medical experts urge people and communities to increase vaccination rates while preparing and administrating booster shots. Some countries are imposing lockdowns while others are resuming travel and business restrictions to cope with the new Omicron variant. Also, some local governments, organizations, and businesses are mandating vaccination to their staff and workers, including hospital workers and school teachers. However, there still are people who resist vaccination for health, physical, or mental reasons, including religious beliefs and politics. Advocates for mandatory vaccinations say they will reduce health risks, other restrictive measures, and economic damage. Opponents argue that they are not convinced of the safety and efficacy of the vaccination. Also, while governments and some political parties want to contain the outbreak as soon as and as easily as possible, others initiate anti-vaccination campaigns to buy votes. Aren’t humans fighting against the novel virus and its variants?
