Waitresses bus drivers etc are not in direct contact with you. They can still maintain a certain distance. Health workers cannot do certain procedures without being in very close proximity or direct contact even through PPE. Even as a lab scientist not in contact with the public rules changed , we had to pay fees to be registered with the HPC, we had to provide evidence of continuous improvement, education, and standards. If not our licence to practice would be revoked, and then no job.
I'm not sure still that any of that works. Apart from the publicised doctor vaccinations, when have ANY vaccinations in the UK been mandatory? IE anytime when any UK citizen was forced into a medical procedure?
Surely the fact that the vast majority of Drs and nurses think they need to be vaccinated is enough of an answer. Lets try not to make this complicated, hospital staff get far closer to other people than MP's, waitresses.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Of course - they looked at the evidence and came to the conclusion that it was right for them and others. BUT it was a choice.Do you not agree that some people chose NOT to be vaccinated for their reasons?
Can I ask you then, as you're closer to Covid and care, why was the flu vaccine never then mandated given that it was known to kill a certain sector of the population each year?
I think any employer from the government down to the chap who owns the corner shop should have the right to set the conditions for people working in their premises - qualifications, experience, vaccinations if they're working in close proximity with other people (offices, shops etc) and aren't unable to be vaccinated on medical grounds. If you can't or won't meet the criteria, you don't get the job. My employer strongly encourages everyone to have a flu vaccine each year (although doesn't go as far as insisting) and will pay for those who don't get it free.

I don't think the average bus driver or waitress was as up close and personal as I was with patients many hours at a time. The bed pumped up, them coughing away level with my face. I had to have Hep ABC,and annual checks for TB resistance,it went with the job. All my old NHS colleagues are triple jabbed,typhoon Mary,did she sweep through on the wind!
