I dont want to turn this into 'that thread' but we all need to have a think about things here. You expect a 16yr old volunteer ref or the little old frail Ground Marshall to go round checking everyone's Vax status before kickoff? Let alone some uni student bar staff asking for your papers before getting a drink? Its not manageable. Does the canteen volunteers need to be checked? Do they need to check everyone in the crowds status before serving them a bag of lollies?

Pre covid we lived in a society full of anti vaxxers and transmittable diseases. Thinking this is the one that will change all that isn't reality.

Im fully vaxxed, and encourage everyone to do so, but after that we as a society have to do a better job at living with this virus without resorting to this type of stuff.

England especially has made a choice and aint turning back. 200k cases last week and full stadiums and back to normal. We will follow the same path it will only take one premier to announce it and the others will follow. Zero covid is not going to happen.

And don't get me started on personal responsibility. The attitude of rule breakers during lockdown is frustrating but is the end product of a system we all helped create that has no consequences for being a shit****.
Assholes flouting the law is not a new thing, its only now that it affect more people that we all seem to have a problem with it.
