Among the array of vaccines designed to combat COVID-19 The planet is in this situation, and the news is very encouraging, according to the scientific community. This is because the first vaccinations have already begun, and the number of available doses is constantly increasing.
Her vaccine Pfizer is located further ahead, with the Moderna and Oxford/AstraZeneca Three other vaccines are reportedly one step away from approval.
Just as science is once again providing the solution, a debate has begun that has long been a source of controversy regarding the intersection of biology and ethics. As a topic of bioethical debate, the vaccine has divided opinion into two camps, as has been the case for years with all vaccines and, since 2016, with the anti-vaccination movement.
On the one hand, there are those who want vaccination to be mandatory, and on the other, there are those who are afraid or who believe that the vaccine will implant… microchips in their bodies.
«I’m not going to go out on the street chasing down people who don’t want to get vaccinated. But they should know that they’re taking on a responsibility toward themselves. And perhaps not us, but the market itself—the free economy—will impose restrictions that make their lives a little more difficult,», Kyriakos Mitsotakis said in a radio interview, who made it clear that those who refuse to get vaccinated will have to get used to a new reality so as not to endanger everyone else.
Although scientists (including Mr. Mosialos) have pointed out that mandatory vaccination will fuel conspiracy theories among…the easily alarmed, it seems we will inevitably be led to such a solution. This is because even if it isn’t mandatory, it will become necessary if we want to regain a large part of our former lives.
This section includes travel, going out to restaurants and bars with friends, and attending concerts, movies, and other shows.
As for travel, several airlines have already begun laying the groundwork by reaching out to consumers, explaining that the vaccine will be a prerequisite for any international travel.
The Australian Qantas has announced through its CEO that travel by Australians outside the country and to New Zealand will require vaccination, as will travel in the opposite direction. In fact, Alan Joyce also urged, through his position at IATA, the Airline Workers« Union, and all airlines to implement a “no vaccine, no” policy party »flight" just like George Clooney in a Martini commercial.
And how could they do otherwise when, in 2020, airlines posted losses totaling nearly 157 billion dollars, a result not only of the flight bans imposed by most countries from March through May. This loss of revenue is largely the result of public fear.
To combat this fear, British Airways, in collaboration with the Association, is developing a passport app that will indicate whether a traveler has been vaccinated, as well as the protocols in effect in their home country for those traveling to and from it.
In fact, the app will be free for travelers, but airlines will pay a small fee for each customer who uses it, while blockchain technology—rather than data storage—will be used to protect personal data. This means that medical records will be accessible only before and after the trip and cannot be used for advertising purposes.
This won't be the only app, as several airlines are preparing their own versions. Soon, a similar app will be launched in Hong Kong and Singapore for travel between the two countries, which operate on the principle of travel bubble, In other words, these are two partner countries that allow air travel only between themselves, while the Korean Air of South Korea It creates the system that will ensure a COVID-free check-in and boarding process for her.
In addition to air travel and all other types of travel, there is a serious possibility that some countries may also require proof of vaccination for entry into restaurants and entertainment venues. The official responsible for the distribution of 357 million doses of vaccine in Great Britain, Nissim Zahavi stated that pubs, bars, restaurants, concert venues, sporting events, and theaters and movie theaters will require their patrons to be vaccinated.
If this is the case in the England and if the Spain If it issues red cards to those who don’t get vaccinated, then we don’t see what would prevent this from taking effect in Greece as well—and on a large scale across Europe. In fact, as reported today by *Ta Nea*, a vaccination certificate will be issued using the Taxis and AMKA codes, as well as through the KEPs which will essentially serve as a citizen's pass to freely enter various places.
Now that the coronavirus nightmare has left its mark on national economies, the margins are narrowing. It is clear that the market, in most of its sectors, must avoid risking another catastrophic shutdown will require a vaccination certificate to protect itself as well as its customers.
The motto will now be: «You have the right to believe in conspiracies, but those who don’t believe in them also have the right to protect themselves…» Fair enough, don’t you think?;
