So how might the rollout be carried out around the world? BBC Outside Source’s Ros Atkins takes a closer look.

If you die or have side effects, you CAN’T SUE THE COMPANIES. That should tell you something.

[Mat-ilda]

So you can't literally hold people down and force them to take the needle- but you can strip them of their ability to provide for themselves and live till they take it. Disgusting ..

[TASIAawful]

This is a bloody disgrace and a violation against human rights

[copyandpastethis]

*If you are not forcing people to have it, that means you will not penalise anyone who doesn't.*
*Coercion by threats of removing access to services or places is mandation by bullying.*

I work in a Hospital in the UK. And a very large majority are already saying they wont have it. Not just porters. This is surgeons and doctors too.
Worries me enough that it took ten months to make. The last record turnaround was 4 years for a vaccine.

It should alarm you that we are heading toward a society where you will need to offer up unlimited access to your veins in exchange for permission to live a normal life

2.2k dislikes are not brainwashed by the main stream news

Let me sum up the comments section for you: Taking it 5% Not taking it 95%

Them: "It's not mandatory, it's ENTIRELY YOUR choice. By the way, you can't go to the shop, get a job, travel, go to the park, access public funds or services. But remember, it's not mandatory."

Literally what the "conspiracy theorists" predicted...and people still call them crazy.

[NM-ouel]

I dare you to. You'll have the biggest fight on your hands. Mark of beast.

[olliemabb]

They have every intention of making it mandatory they are just silencing the alarms for the time being

[twitts]

We the people need to unite. Forget about colour, creed or religon. Wage bracket, sexual orientation, political affiliation. None of that matters!
We are one and together we are powerful, and THEY know and they fear this. That is why they do their best to divide us using race, class, gender, etc.
Thay are coming for all of us and the only way to beat then is to unite and peacefully non comply.
We need someone to unite us, he or she is out there. We need to get organised and we need to do it now.

[misteropinion]

Its against human rights, and will NOT be mandatory, its unlawful.

[zach]

This isn't even a question, the answer is NO

[fiona]

We can also play their games simply by not traveling, don't work, don't buy from them. God is our provider.

[demonhalo]

It would be a national outrage and evoke bitter resistance. I will never take it whether it is mandatory or coerced.

[pawlus]

No. Period. That shouldn't even been discussed.

[LloydEWatson]

I'm not an anti vaxer, but I have concerns about a vaccination that has been produced in 9 to 10 months. Surely making it mandatory is illegal?

[titanblood]

I will NEVER take it, even if you make it mandatory, I will fight tooth and nail.
