Disability sector sceptical about potential mandatory COVID-19 vaccines for workers


Share on Twitter
People in the disability sector have said mandatory COVID-19 shots for workers would not be their first choice for boosting vaccination rates, after the prime minister flagged such a move could be made in the coming days.
Asked whether a similar mandate would apply to disability care workers - another priority vaccination group - Mr Morrison said: "We didn’t make that decision tonight, but there is further advice that will be coming back [and] we expect to receive that on Friday".
Anne Kavanagh, a University of Melbourne professor who has conducted a study on vaccine hesitancy among disability support workers, said a policy of mandatory vaccinations could result in up to a fifth of the workforce exiting.
