The virologist at KULeuven no longer goes there with the back of the spoon. In his last publication on Twitter, Emmanuel André explains in particular the benefit of compulsory vaccination for “antivax”.
At the front during this pandemic, Emmanuel André is not ready to stop trying to convince the unvaccinated to take the plunge. “Every message I receive from people who refuse the vaccine convinces me more that making vaccination compulsory is a public health necessity, starts the microbiologist before tackling people who do not get vaccinated, because it seems obvious to me that these people are locked in beliefs which they know to be erroneous. “
Then, Emmanuel André evokes the many messages, sometimes aggressive, that he receives “I perceive all these messages (obviously empty of rational and sometimes aggressive arguments) as a somewhat clumsy cry for help from people who no longer know how to get out of their way following having said so much that they would never be vaccinated”, he explains on his Twitter account.
He then concludes his plea with the benefit that compulsory vaccination can bring for those who have not yet crossed the barrier. “For all these people, making the vaccination compulsory would therefore be doing them a great service. Because they might benefit from all the beneficial effects of the vaccine without having to” change their mind “in front of all the people they have been drinking for years. month.”
