Compulsory vaccination bad

THE National Capital District Commission might make it compulsory for every employee to be vaccinated.
This is a bit oppressive, especially when human rights lawyer- turned -governor Powes Parkop is at the helm of the commission.
Provide options for employees to work from home if they do not want to take the jab.
Enforce strict rules on wearing of face masks, hand sanitising and social distancing.
If the experienced and specially skilled lose their jobs, it will be difficult to replace them in a few years; the job output could be at the lowest.
We need highly skilled manpower to help us get through this pandemic, which is why to force workers to make a choice on vaccination is deemed counterproductive.
The best way to handle this vaccination policy is for Parliament to pass a legislation for all citizens, including, to get vaccinated.
Isolated pockets of strict implementation under the pretext of occupational health and workplace safety requirement is discriminatory and ineffective because the bulk of the population is unvaccinated and will still be exposed to Covid-19 risks outside of the workplace in PMVs, shopping centres, markets and other areas where a lot of people congregate.
Workers in the private sector in Lae, Morobe, have been forced to be vaccinated or lose their jobs.
Now, we have a State body planning to do the same.
Let us workout something beneficial rather than something that is oppressive and harsh against human rights, dignity and values.
