| Subject: Outrageous rights violation: 'Time to think about mandatory vaccination' across the ENTIRE EU, Ursula von der Leyen warns Thu Dec 02, 2021 4:33 pm | |
| It is time for the European Union 'to think about' making Covid vaccines mandatory across the entire bloc, Ursula von der Leyen has said as the continent battles a winter wave of virus amid fears about the Omicron variant.
The EU Commission President, speaking in Brussels, said it will ultimately be up to member states to decide their own vaccine rules - but it is her 'personal opinion' that the time is right to discuss forcing people to get jabs.
'We have one third of the population which is not vaccinated. This is 150million people - that is a lot. Not each and every one could be vaccinated... but the vast majority could,' she said.
Ms Von der Leyen's comments come after Austria announced plans to make vaccines mandatory for all eligible citizens by February, with an aide to incoming German Chancellor Olaf Scholz saying yesterday that he wants to follow suit.
