Mandatory vacations for those who travel?... I’m all for a safe tested and trialed vaccine when big pharmaceuticals firms are accountable for the product we inject into bodies which is making them super rich. But a rush rushed vaccine with short trials and totally unaccountable firms.... someone else can be the human guinea pigs and my wife’s a nurse working with only COVID patients everyday.

I'm all for vaccination and all, but exactly how is this going to be upheld and authenticated by various government? I have read somewhere that already there's a company which is making a ton of profit selling fake health certificates of all sorts.
I think it has to be 3 flanks coverage before it can work. Firstly, is to have a common method of recognition for those have been vaccinated. Secondly, a quick and reliable test for detecting the virus, and if need to, even the antigen in one's body. Third and finally, travelers will need to agree to some form of contact tracing.
Personally, I think it's gonna be a long while to get there. Let's keep our fingers crossed on this one.

It is against the law in Japan to mandate everyone get vaccinated.

Most of law incl. constitution don't apply to foreign residents.

A bit rich demanding passengers are vaccinated when the country you live in isn’t offering it.
