Personally I believe anyone who refuses the jab should be asked to sign a document stating that if they test positive after refusing then they are also signing away their right to assistance from the NHS!
That’s ok but while they are allowed to walk about free to infect more of the people that are still awaiting to be inoculated against the virus is not right.We have lost a dear family member to the virus and she was only in her 60s so I don’t think there is much doubt that some of the people that have refused the vaccine are infecting other people.We have also got the problem of millions of illegal immigrants in this country who will never come forward to be vaccinated.And the illegal immigrants that are being looked after in former military camps around the country are causing trouble,maybe they would like to be sent back to the camps in France.It looks as though we are going to be stuck with this virus for years to come and have to be vaccinated every year just like us older people have to be vaccinated against the flu and sometimes they get the wrong flu strain in the vaccine.The COVID strain is changing so much the scientists will have a much harder job to keep on top of the COVID virus and as far as I am concerned to help the people that are trying to keep us safe the people that are refusing to have the vaccine should remain in lockdown in their homes.
I served in the Royal Navy during the 1950s and 60s and we had to be vaccinated against many ailments such as Yellow fever and many more not only to protect us but to protect other people we came in contact with,and we were not allowed to refuse any inoculations.Now may of these nasty ailments are no longer around thanks to vaccinations.After getting that off my old chest I think to get rid of me they will have to shoot me.My old Grandad lived to the age of 94 and he stopped smoking at 89 because he said it wasn’t doing him any good and I want to beat his age.
