Activities
John Quiggin published in 7 Sep 2021 for the WEF Do vaccination passports take away freedoms? It depends on how you frame the question[1]. Writing: "In this context, introducing vaccine passports can be framed as restoring freedom to those who are vaccinated." This clever wording will according to Quiggin split the opponents, and this "division makes it even less likely that effective opposition will emerge." ..."Protesters might make some noise, but in practice the biggest hurdle for vaccine passports will likely be the administrative failures".[1]
In 2021 he also mused what should happen permanently to the minority: "Now that vaccines have become available, the majority of the population has rushed to protect themselves and everyone else. There is increasingly little patience for the selfish or misguided minority who refuse, even when given every opportunity to get vaccinated. The only way to protect ourselves and our children from this group is by keeping them isolated from the rest of us, effectively continuing the same restrictions we have all gone through until now."[2]
