COVID 19 vaccine and travelling

Gemma

Hello all

I'm new to this site but not new to autism. My child both have ASD (11 &14) both at opposite ends of the scale.

My question is what's everyone's views on the COVID vaccine? My son doesn't let anyone touch him, haircuts, dentist etc are all a complete nightmare. So he would never let anyone near him to have the vaccine (he is also NV). But if airlines are starting to state they won't allow anyone to travel without the injection. Does this mean my children won't be able to ever go abroad again?

Is this fair? Is this against their human rights!?

  • short answer is No.

    You are jumping away ahead into the future.  The airlines have not said that. There are always exceptions. So stop worrying about something way in the future. 

    If they do require a vaccine that is not against your human rights and is a common policy in many countries for quite a while now for other diseases. Countries have a right to protect their citizens from disease introduced by visitors.

    Please, if u get the opportunity, vaccinate your kids against Covid 19. it is a very serious disease and it isn't going away. You will be putting them at quite a high risk if you do not.
