Coronavirus vaccinations are to become mandatory for care home staff under plans to be announced by ministers, as they consider extending the move to all NHS staff.
According to media reports, ministers will confirm they are pushing ahead with compulsory vaccination for most of the 1.5 million people working in social care in England, despite employer and staff organisations in the sector warning that it could backfire if workers quit rather than get immunised.
Care organisations have warned that compulsory vaccinations could cause significant difficulties in a sector that already struggles to recruit enough people.
Under the plans those working with adults will have 16 weeks to get vaccinated or face losing their jobs. There are concerns within Westminster that the controversial measure could see the government being sued under European human rights law or equalities legislation.
The Department of Health and Social Care will soon launch two separate consultation exercises into making Covid and flu jabs mandatory for NHS staff.
The British Medical Association warned that while they want all NHS staff to get jabbed, ‘compulsion is a blunt instrument that carries its own risks’.
