I do not believe the vaccine cert being fair, I believe it is discriminatory. People who cannot receive the vaccine for health reasons may not have access to basic health care in my country (if they go with it), and they already cannot get a job in many places. How is this not discriminating? Heck, if people are so caring, then how come that I am being down-voted for expressing such a view, a view against discrimination? Actually, for the most part I was only talking about life around here (i.e. facts, that for some reason get down-voted, unless they read too much into my comment), and was not expressing such a view. In this comment, I specifically do. In any case, no worries, I do not expect you to actually give me a reasoning as you cannot possibly see inside their heads.

I am not speaking against vaccination though, nor am I comparing the two or at least that was not intended (see the following sentence in parentheses). I was talking about the vaccine cert specifically (which we have for COVID-19 only, so I could have replaced "flu shot" with anything else, really), and regarding that, what is it that is not true (as far as what I said) or worth down-voting? I do not understand. Is my comment being perceived as anti-vaxx for some reason and thus, gets down-voted?

The infection rates for Covid and flu are in the same ballpark so the infection rate is basically irrelevant. So Covid to flu comparison is more like apples to apples.

This is why herd immunity is so important. For those healthy adults that are able to get vaccinated, should get vaccinated. When herd immunity is reached, those who cannot be vaccinated for health reasons are protected by everyone else.
