All in all, the COVID-19 vaccination is good for the world. The vaccine should be
compulsory as it would save many lives and it is our most powerful tool to eradicate the
coronavirus. It must be used to ensure safety for other and can prevent us from many damages.
However, forcing people to be inoculated violates their right to personal choice. Otherwise, many
people cannot support the vaccines and have severe reaction. Personally, as we live through these
tumultuous times of pandemic, protest and climate change, a debate on whether the Covid-19
vaccine should be compulsory is not something the world needs now.
 WRITING

The COVID-19 pandemic is a very dangerous pandemic of coronavirus disease that caused
many severe respiratory attacks. Many people dead due to the bad and belated decision from States.
Then come vaccines as a remedy to fight this disease. Many got inoculated but there are a lot who
refuse it yet. Then we come up with the following question: Should Covid-19 vaccination be
compulsory? In this essay, were are going to prove that the COVID-19 vaccines should be made
mandatory.

The vaccine is the most powerful tool to eradicate the coronavirus as it would save many
lives. Firstly, this is important as the Coronavirus, although not deadly to everyone, spreads rapidly
and we have now reach millions of death around the world. Moreover, not being vaccinated is
completely wrong as it is more intruding on other people’s freedom that they will die an easily
preventable death. If we can gain “herd immunity” as a country, we can resume our normal lives
and be free again and stop the unnecessary death of a preventable virus.

Apart from that, vaccine must be to ensure safety for other. Of course, if one person doesn’t
want it, they should be aware that by not having it they are putting others in danger. In addition, it
sounds brutal, but the vaccine is absolutely safe for vast majority of the population. Then, if we
want to beat this disease, a strong non-negotiable approach is needed. It is important to protect the
vulnerable citizens and the rest of the world.

Furthermore, the vaccine can prevent us from many damages. Indeed, it is scientifically
proved that taking the vaccine eliminate the virus from our body and we become healthier. The
spread of the virus increases chances for mutation, resulting in new strains. That is way there are
so many variant of the COVID-19 at the moment, and they get stronger as they mutate. A return to
normally will be brought about much faster if as many people are inoculated as possible. If we do
not want to be vaccinated, the virus will ruin many sectors such as the economy, education, and
even more
