I don't have any moral or emotional reason why vaccines should not be forced upoin people, but there is a logistical difficulty.
You fine someone, they refuse to pay, you fine them more, they still refuse to pay, you send them to prison and they still refuse to pay.
What do you do? Leave them in prison forever?
Someone is living on the breadline, barely ably to survive. What do you do, increase their benefits so that they can pay? Or put them in prison forever?
That's a situation they may regret creating.
Better to think of inconveniences - like no pubs, cinema, gatherings, weekly testing, etc. etc. Irritate TF out of them until getting the vaccine just becomes easier.
