With a new school year quickly approaching and COVID-19 case numbers going up across Canada, some are beginning to ask whether post-secondary institutions should require staff and students to be vaccinated if they want to learn on campus.

, its highest single-day total since May. On Friday, the province announced new restrictions, including limits on indoor dining, in the Central Okanagan region.

"Vaccines come and exist because of the work we do at universities," Prado says. "We should be leading. The science is clear, those vaccines are safe and we should be implementing this." In his opinion, "if people don't want to be vaccinate then they shouldn't be in a room with a thousand other people."

Fully vaccinated Alex Bentz, a student at McGill University, says he would feel more comfortable if everyone on campus was vaccinated.WHO SHOULD LEAD POLICY? Quebec on Thursday said they would bring in vaccine passports so those vaccinated can enter non-essential businesses. However, it is unclear if that would reach the halls of post-secondary schools.World Health Organization in forming some general ethical guidance on mandating vaccines,

He adds that there's a misconception that mandates, such as those for vaccines, infringe on people's rights, but that's not the case.

Well, this stupid virus should not spread out if people just follow the mandates. But moron they are, they love party and travelling. Whose fault is that? Vacinated or not be careful and be responsible!

Absolutely NOT

Yes! Yes yes yes!!!

Magnets stick to my dad's arm after 1 dose of AZ Dont touch our kids with that crap!

Vaccinated people have protection and yet some of them are still mad at people for not having protection...?

It's odd that many antivaxxers who have never attended a post-secondary institution, have the propensity to speak out against a proposed mandate that has nothing to do with them. Based on the English skills of these people, I'd question if many of them even finished high school.

Yes!!!!!!

No. People have the right to not get vaccinated, and possibly die, if they so choose. It's natural selection at work.

Yes!!!

Yes

Just like you have to have a polio up vaccine, German measles vaccine, Rubella, Pertussis, etc to go to school add the COVID vaccine there is no difference to those other vaccines. Don’t you see with your own two eyes that it’s folks who are not vaccinated that r sick and dying

Yes

Yes. Of course.

Then fuck school. No one should be forced to get an experimental vaccine for a virus with a 99.9 % recovery rate. Not all of us cower in fear!!

No, no no no no no not at all!

Yes

YES

Yes

No.

No they shouldn’t because it sets a terrible precedent. If you look at Trump and the dictator like qualities, who is to say somebody worse wouldn’t push through a vaccine with even less studies done on it, and what if that caused serious problems? 1 of many reasons why not to..

NO VACCINE MANDATES AT ALL!

Yes

Yes!!!!!

That a serious question? Y-E-S!

ABSOLUTELY!!!

No. See this,

I'll never stop wearing my mask And my son will never stop Too many stupid people wandering around

The nazis in the comment section are saying Yes

Yes let's mandate an unapproved mrna that is still in phase 3 of testing to people that have human rights and the right to choose what goes into thier body. Nothing wrong with this at all. Oh yeah if you didn't catch it, that was all sarcasm.

I can not fathom why it needs to be mandatory,..., just makes zero sense . .

You guys are going to have riots at your studios soon. Enough with the fear media. I don’t care what Trudeau tells you to do 😡😡😡😡

Absolutely! Any educational facility should demand vaccines for employees, staff and students

No.

Yes!

please no

Yes!!!!

Duh

Wtf

No

Supplying ASTM 3 masks or higher upon entry to classes would help. It’s what we use in medical/dental. Poorly fitted cloth does not do much. The fully vaccinated can still get and transmit covid. Masking is also key to stop transmission, vaccination helps lessen your illness.

If so, will the universities provide online options for the students who haven't? I mean, they paid their tuition right?

YESSSSSSS

Absolutely!

Yes

No, they shouldn’t

What about the university staff then? Are they mandating they have proof of vaccination to go to work

Yes, absolutely.

Why would we mandate a vaccine that isn’t approved yet? These young adults should voluntarily vax if they are immune compromised and want a vax. The rest will help with herd immunity and most likely be just fine no? Staff and admin should vax if they are older

Yes

Yes or not be allowed entry!

No 👎 we are vaccinated and we should not worry we will not die. If anything they are at more risk to die.

Does your vaccination spot on your arm glow under a black light? Please check and let us know. Be sure to drag the black light down your arm.

Most already have.

Yes!

Yes

My answer is absolutely but this shouldn’t be a debatable question it should just be….

No!

Again, proven that vaxxed spread Covid just as much as unvaxxed so continuing to try and sell “mandates” and “passports” is mute Also if a school mandates it, are they accepting liability for adverse effects? Cause right now the manufacturers and the govt refuse to accept any

Yes, post-secondary schools should most definitely mandate vaccines.

Absolutely!

Yes

Not really.

If you need to ask this question then we have a problem!

Yesssssssss!!!

Of course.

Yes

Of course they should. No brainer.

As an instructor in a post-secondary institution here in Edmonton, I would whole heartedly say yes. For the safety and wellbeing of everyone else on campus

yes

Every school should mandate vaccines & masks in their schools to protect everyone in the pandemic.

Of course

Hell yes

yes

If you're a wanker you'll say yes.

Yes

Why bother, if the vaccinated can hang in there a little longer, wear masks and follow the guidelines, eventually the unvaccinated won’t be an issue. CovidIsNotOver

Yes, students pay dearly to attend and deserve a normal school year.

Yes

Yes....definitely

Mandate ones that work, we already do that, its hard to mandate a vaccine that might only work ~60% of the time, are we acting like everyone getting 2 doses now is covered for anything? 60% isnt that far from 50, which would mean it works half the time?

Yes.

Yes a thousand times 😷🆘☠️⚰️

No

Yes...

I don’t understand the reluctance. I had to prove TB vaccinated when I was in Uni, and to work. Also to travel to other countries I had to have certain vaccines. It’s not new to prove vax status.

Someone call this news org out on this. Science is not up for public debate. SHAME.

You are only baiting people to argue about this by posing this question. You also are discrediting science and our institutions by pretending a twitter user's input here is of any value. Delete this post. You should be ashamed.

Why are you asking this question? Science is not an opinion. You should be ashamed

Yes! Seneca made the right call. All post-sec schools should mandate vaccination for on-campus work or learning, and if necessary accommodate those with religious or medical exemptions, who can't be vaccinated, to participate remotely.

Absolutely

Absolutely

Yes they should !

Yes. No jab, then no entry to the campus or classrooms. Unvaccinated students can stay home.

Yes

Yes
