Vaccine Refusal Will End When Businesses Start Telling People No
Marketplace solutions, not government actions, will likely get us to herd immunity
People are worried about Covid-19 vaccine refusal. I am not concerned at all. Don’t stress. People are ready to get their lives back, and the Covid-19 vaccine is the golden ticket to the future.
Fear-mongering news stories hype the question of vaccine hesitancy. Will enough people accept the vaccine to help us reach herd immunity and allow us to get our lives back?
The answer, I think, is yes. People will get vaccinated. Here is why.
Back in April, Emily Mullin wrote an outstanding yet disturbing story covering immunity passports. The basic concept is those who have immunity through a previous infection or vaccine-induced antibody conversion will have a dystopian economic advantage. Her article haunted me from the first time I saw it. If you have not read it, check it out.
Emily Mullin’s story was ahead of its time, but now the reality of immunity passports may be coming to fruition. Humans are ready to return to normalcy, and, like it or not, many private companies are going to require proof of immunity to participate in certain aspects of society.
