There are two classes of people: vaccinated and unvaccinated. Vaccinated individuals have certain rights. Initially, there was hope to maintain elimination of the virus across the country without the need for vaccination certificates. However, it has become clear that these certificates not only drive up vaccination rates but also provide confidence to vaccinated individuals. They want to be around other vaccinated people and feel safe in hospitality and event settings. Offering this confidence and safety is important for those who have been vaccinated, allowing them to enjoy these activities again.

More governmental authorities are mandating the vaccine in response to the rise of Delta. It cannot come soon enough, as we have hit a wall with vaccinations and need higher levels to prevent another surge and new variants. A decision must be made as a society, similar to laws against drunk driving. While people can remain unvaccinated, there's an obligation to society if they want to be in public and potentially infect others with a dangerous disease. An opt-out system, like in France or Italy, could require vaccination or proof of a negative test to enter bars, restaurants, and movie theaters. People should not have the choice to infect vulnerable children, immunocompromised people, or even others who have taken the responsible choice to get vaccinated.

There are people who do not want to comply and get vaccinated, and we have to get them vaccinated. Hopefully, they will do it willingly. If not, there will have to be things that will essentially put pressure on them. For example, you're not going to work in this particular agency or institution, or go to this college or university unless you get vaccinated. Once we start doing that, you will see more and more people willingly get vaccinated.

We will collaborate with provinces and territories to implement vaccination certifications or passports for safety. The federal government will fund the creation of privileges for vaccinated individuals, as it is crucial for everyone to get vaccinated. Those who choose not to get vaccinated pose a risk to all of us.

As scientists, our job during a pandemic is to provide policymakers with answers to inform their decisions. We shouldn't dictate personal choices like saying goodbye to loved ones or attending funerals. Instead, we should present the risks and allow individuals to decide for themselves. Scientists shouldn't close schools or limit hospital treatments. Our role is to offer reliable data, empowering people to make informed choices. Science should promote freedom and knowledge, not impose restrictions. Pushing mandates, especially for rapidly developed vaccines like the COVID vaccines, can erode public trust. If science champions freedom and knowledge, it will have widespread support.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated and states that it is a personal choice. However, they assert that unvaccinated individuals should not be allowed to travel on planes or trains with vaccinated people, as it poses a risk. They emphasize the need for strong decision-making in this regard.

Our European and global friends couldn't join us on the cruise because vaccination was required. I don't care about your political beliefs, but you can't infect others just because you think you have delusional rights. The government can tell you to stop at a red light or wear a seat belt. Smoking is banned in buildings because the rest of us hate it. We don't want to catch your disease or risk our lives for your selfishness. We need to identify these people who prioritize their own desires over the well-being of others. True friends care about your safety, including during the COVID pandemic. If you're unvaccinated and among us, you are an enemy.

I have no resentment towards the unvaccinated, but we can still expect something from them. We have all made sacrifices for so long, with restrictions on contact, gastronomy, and businesses, as well as the financial resources we have invested. I believe that we can ask the unvaccinated to accept a nearly side-effect-free vaccine that is scientifically undisputed. I see myself as old-fashioned in this regard, in the tradition of enlightenment and the duty of Kant. If everyone were to think this way, we would end up in chaos.

Vaccination will always be a choice, and there will not be a two-tier society. The idea of a vaccination passport should be approached with caution, as it may create implicit pressure. Companies or organizations cannot enforce vaccination. There should be no indirect vaccination requirement, and no disadvantages or advantages for those who choose not to vaccinate or have already been vaccinated. People should never feel compelled to prove their vaccination status, and it should be legally impossible to use it as a requirement. Voluntary means voluntary, and it should not become mandatory through other means.

We deserve a government that encourages vaccination and prioritizes the safety of its citizens. While everyone has the right to choose whether to get vaccinated, it's important not to put vaccinated individuals at risk. We value democracy and respect differing opinions, which is why we're giving people the opportunity to make their own choices for the future through elections. Our focus has always been on putting Canadians first, and we need everyone to step up and help protect our communities. Talk to your neighbors and friends, especially those who are unsure about getting vaccinated, and encourage them to do so for the sake of our own health, our communities, and our children who cannot yet be vaccinated. Let's work together to build a better future.

Speaker 0: I ask all citizens to hold on a little longer. But until everyone is vaccinated, there will be no easing of restrictions, that is not the path we are aiming for. Speaker 1: Yesterday, you said that as long as not everyone can be offered a vaccine, there will be no new freedoms, we are talking about old freedoms. How do you plan to keep the vaccinated, let's say, in check, so that they don't start traveling, meeting up, or partying again? How long do you intend to enforce this strictly? Speaker 0: Well, I was asked about the wrong word, which I have already used, privileges, you didn't mention that. Because we must not get used to the normal life, as we know it with other freedoms, that life is no longer normal. That's where we want to go back to. These are fundamental rights that everyone has. But at the moment, even if someone is vaccinated, it is not clear whether they can still infect other people. And as long as that is not clarified, we cannot have any special measures or rights in addition to the normal rights for which the wave of lawsuits is demanding, and they are right. Look, there are now many lawsuits from people who want to be vaccinated in the highest priority group. There are lawsuits about the fairness of the measures. There will be lawsuits about the question of rights for the vaccinated, that is part of the rule of law and as politicians, we must argue why we are doing something, why we are not doing something. I believe that if we have been able to offer vaccination to a large number of people later on, and then some people say, we don't have mandatory vaccination, now I don't want to be vaccinated, then maybe we have to make such distinctions and say, okay, if you don't want it, then you may not be able to do certain things. Speaker 1: Chancellor, you explicitly mentioned the 21st of September yesterday. By then, there should be a vaccination offer for everyone. That is, if you look at the calendar, five days before the federal election. That date was not a coincidence, right? Speaker 0: Look, that is the meteorological beginning of autumn.

We need to be sure that being vaccinated prevents both contracting and transmitting the disease before implementing a vaccine passport. Allowing vaccinated individuals to access certain places based on proof of vaccination makes sense, but only if we are certain that being vaccinated prevents disease transmission.

People need to prioritize the greater good over personal beliefs. Unvaccinated individuals should face consequences like fines, reduced benefits, and higher insurance premiums. It's crucial for everyone to be vaccinated to protect vulnerable populations and prevent overwhelming the healthcare system. Collaboration and unity are essential in the fight against COVID-19.

We encourage vaccination without making it mandatory. Those unvaccinated may face restrictions like not being able to travel, work in public service, or access non-essential services. A controversial study by David Fisman claimed unvaccinated individuals increase the risk for vaccinated people, but critics argue it was based on flawed data. The government used this study to justify mandates, sparking debate. The opposition questions the lack of scientific evidence behind certain policies. Ultimately, individuals have a choice to get vaccinated, but there may be consequences for opting out without a valid medical reason.

Actions speak louder than words. If you choose not to get vaccinated, that's your decision. However, you shouldn't be allowed to travel with vaccinated individuals and put them in danger. We must stand firm in the choices we make.

Speaker 0: Mandatory vaccination is nonsense. No one in Germany will be forced to get vaccinated against their will. The idea that those who choose not to get vaccinated should lose their basic rights is also absurd and malicious. Let's remember the experiences we've had in Germany and reject such claims. Personally, I am open to technological and medical advancements. If German authorities approve a vaccine, I would be one of the first to get vaccinated. However, I will also advocate for the freedom of those who choose not to, as they should not be forced into it.

People who choose not to get vaccinated will be at a disadvantage compared to those who do get vaccinated. Vaccinated individuals are protected against the virus, while unvaccinated individuals are not. They can still contract the disease even when the virus is not circulating much. This is the case for all infectious diseases with available vaccines that people refuse. Our role is to make it simple and free to get vaccinated, and to continuously encourage and explain why it is important. We need to address doubts and answer questions. It is not clear if unvaccinated individuals, like Laura, can go to the cinema. However, we will not prevent the reopening of restaurants just because a small percentage of the population refuses to get vaccinated. Vaccination is a personal choice, but it is also a protection for oneself and others. If concerned, consult with a doctor who can provide reassurance and encourage vaccination.

We are not considering removing the mandate; it's not on the agenda. Our immediate priority is to protect unvaccinated individuals from infection, which means keeping them away from crowded places. Many restrictions have been lifted in hospitality venues, allowing vaccinated individuals to live normally. It's unfair to ask vaccinated people to make sacrifices for the small number of unvaccinated individuals.

People who choose not to get vaccinated will be at a disadvantage compared to those who do get vaccinated. Vaccinated individuals are protected against the virus, while unvaccinated individuals are not and can contract the disease even when the virus is widespread. It is important to make getting vaccinated simple and free, and to continuously explain the reasons why vaccination is necessary. We should address any doubts and answer questions. However, we cannot prevent reopening restaurants just because a small percentage of the population refuses to get vaccinated, especially when vaccines are readily available. Vaccination is a personal choice, but it is also a protection for oneself and others. If concerned, it is advisable to discuss with a doctor who can provide reassurance and encourage vaccination.

Everyone should have the option to get vaccinated. If someone chooses not to get vaccinated, they shouldn't be forced to, although it's unlikely. However, there should be consequences for not getting vaccinated. It's not fair for those who do get vaccinated to face disadvantages while others don't. Being fair means that those who get vaccinated protect themselves and others. Vaccination prevents the spread of the virus, and as a result, life should return to normal as much as possible for those who are vaccinated and for a certain number of vaccinated individuals. That's why I believe vaccine certificates are important, not just for travel within Europe, but also for everyday life in the long run.

The government encourages vaccination. If you choose not to get vaccinated, you can't travel with vaccinated people and endanger them. We must stand firm in our decisions.

I said that the people who died should have been vaccinated. They were the ones we know are at risk. It's a true public health priority to prioritize them and take action, both collectively and individually.

I get vaccinated not just for myself, but to protect others. It's not a freedom issue, it's about keeping people safe. It's like not being allowed to drink and drive.

We should distinguish between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals, granting more freedom to the vaccinated. It's crucial to incentivize vaccination as it reduces transmission, hospitalization, and death risk. Refusing the vaccine without a valid medical reason is not acceptable.

I support mandatory vaccines for everyone. It's about looking out for each other. People talk about freedom, but we need to protect each other. Just like we did with polio.
