1. good, if you don’t accept medical science you shouldn’t work there

2. Finally, but I’m worried about constitutionality issue, which was the excuse of the previous government. They can force people working for the public administration but the argument was you couldn’t force private companies and citizens.

3. Finally, we have this since September in France

4. “Sehr gut!”, sayeth common sense.
   Makes me wonder though, how many boneheads work in the medical field while not believing in/too lazy to get Vaccinations.You would presumably not trust a Mechanic who does not believe in Brakes.

5. Thank God. As someone who was 2 times in the hospital in the last 2 months, I have to say it does not feel nice to be trapped in a room and dependent on people who might be bringing in a dangerous disease. There’s a reason why hospital workers already have to get other vaccines and this one should be no exception.

   And that’s not even mentioning that I don’t rate the competency of any hospital worker as very high, if they don’t believe in medical science.

   This is a long overdue measure but I’m glad they’re finally getting around to it.
