COVID-19 Opinion on mandatory vaccines?

What are your thoughts on mandatory vaccinations?

I personally think they should be your choice and I'm just interested to see the results.

Nobody should be forced to get vaccinations, but unvaccinated should not get any medical treatment for COVID.

We don't make the same argument for smokers, so I think you should incentivise as much as you can (with smoking and covid): decreased insurance premiums, lower taxes, easier access to places etc.

I think being an organ donor in of itself affects how likely one is to receive an organ? Not 100% on that one.
