If a pregnant woman would rather not share a desk with someone who refuses to get vaccinated for no good reason, should she be forced to? Is she entitled to ask, when she books a minicab, if the driver has had the jab? Does the freedom to go to the pub now come with a responsibility not to think yourself so young and invincible that you can\u2019t be bothered rolling up a sleeve?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/No-jab-no-job-\u2013-the-moral-minefield-confronting-the-UK-government-_-Vaccines-and-immunisation-_-The-Guardian.pdf\">No jab, no job \u2013 the moral minefield confronting the UK government _ Vaccines and immunisation _ The Guardian<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-912","te_announcements","type-te_announcements","status-publish","hentry"],"announcement_date":"Announcement Date: February 27, 2021","announcement_image":{"iframe":false,"url":"http:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/VH-e1703976763410.jpg"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/announcement\/912","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/announcement"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/te_announcements"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.closertogod.net\/InformationTerrorist\/CovidTimeline\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
