I think Christians should have the jab. But it bothers me how governments are forcing their citizens into it
by Graham Nicholls, Premier:
In parts of Europe some citizens who haven’t been vaccinated are being issued with fines. Graham Nicholls is concerned we are establishing a dangerous precedent that allows governments to prosecute those who refuse to take certain medicines.
Austria, Germany, and Greece are leading the way in a new wave of lockdowns with the added twist of targeting the unvaccinated.
Austria put the unvaccinated into virtual lockdown ahead of locking down the whole country and will start issuing fines for the unvaccinated from February. Greece will also be issuing fines to anyone over 60 who has refused vaccination.
In Germany you will be banned from hospitality and leisure activities if you haven’t had the jab.
Right across the continent there are protests – Italy is now in its 20th consecutive week of anti-restriction protests. Should we in the UK be protesting too? Right now we live under fairly light restrictions, but we watch and wait to see how our own government responds to our neighbours and ponders how to contain the Omicron variant.
I can see why governments may want to put in place these targeted restrictions – to encourage more people to get vaccinated – but I am also very uneasy about politicians essentially turning the unvaccinated into outcasts, and what this means for social cohesion and freedom of conscience.
