Do truck drivers have to be vaccinated?

I’m relocating to the UK from new Zealand. Will be getting all my truck licenses when I arrive in the UK. Do you have to be vaccinated to get driving jobs in the UK? I won’t be getting the vaccine and I can’t find work here in New Zealand because of this reason.

No. There is no blanket requirement for vaccination outside of the Care sector, so far, and the Medical sector from April next year. I’ve not heard of any individual employers requiring the jab for driving.
Good luck! So sad that you are required to move!

Who would relocate from the other side of the globe just to avoid a vaccine? Must be time to roast a hobbit

Would I come to the UK to drive trucks , like ■■ would i

So you’re travelling to the other side of the world to avoid getting a jab which could also stop you dying. I hope we don’t let you in. Insane.

Ignore the Muppets mate. Thankfully nobody HAS to have the vaccine here for any reason, and long may it stay that way.
20 million unjabbed here, and plenty of jobs too.
Good luck!

Aint you vaccinated already if your coming from nz/aussie?

iv seen many videos were police are acting like ■■■■ germany post ww2

Everyone has the right to choose whether to have the vaccination or not apart from certain sector jobs. We live in a free society mostly.

Having said all that travel restrictions for unvaccinated may pose you a problem and not sure how you can get around that. Not sure what difference it would make as your relocating to the UK or possibly coming back to the UK. Lots of countries you can’t enter or leave without being vaccinated.

Having said all of that it still surprises me how many people are willing to take the chance of being unvaccinated and hoping they don’t get it or become very ill with it or worse.

So you can’t get a job in NZ because you won’t have the jab so want to come here to work and live so you can still not have the jab.

Valid point to be fair.

Forced vaccination should be a crime under the Geneva Convention.

The purpose of vaccination is to protect the individual. A side-effect is it MIGHT protect others, but there are huge caveats to that.

In the specific case of this vaccine and this virus, it does NOTHING to prevent transmission of the virus by vaccinated people to others.

We can also be thankful that the latest variant is very mild. The mass hysteria is off the charts, and the world needs to calm the [zb] down. At this point the Government are running a propaganda campaign to keep pushing vaccines for what has become a bad cold. Even the Government’s own statistics do not support their claim that the latest variant is spreading like crazy. Only 600 total detections, yet the weekly rate increased by 14000.

I’m not sure how to post a reply to an individual post so I’ll post this way.

Yes vaccinations are being given to everyone here in nz and aussie. If you don’t take the jab you lose your job and in some cases you lose medical treatment like a transplant etc…

I personally have known two people in my social circles who have died from the jab and media won’t talk about it or refuse to let people know the truth.

You have 0.03% chance of dying if you catch covid.

I have chosen not to vax as after much research and personal experience I’m not willing to take a experimental drug.

■■■■ right I’m relocating to the other side of the world to be a truck driver. Its my dream job and I’m a truckie for life. Its what I know and I’m ■■■■ good at it.

Good for you mate, and you are welcome here.
Although you might want to rock up in a dinghy to keep the leftists happy, even though you are ACTUALLY being persecuted and are ACTUALLY in fear for your life, and ACTUALLY want to work here and contribute to society, they don’t like your kind.
Give horse face a slap on the way out!

This is happening all the time. It just doesn’t get reported in the same way as 80+ year old sick people that die with Covid.

The link and the pic are different, hopefully they are both self explanatory.

I understood TN had clamped down on the fake news/conspiracy theorists

There’s loads of alleged “news sites” on the internet, anyone who wants to claim there is scientific evidence to support their views would be advised to quote a reputable source of information, such as PubMed
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

Ok it is controversial however I am a vaccinator and the first thing we do is explain that there is no obligation to have a vaccine (with exceptions newly introduced for health workers), then we explain the risks. Statistically the risks are minute to have other than a mild reaction though there have been cases of toxic shock and death and other widely reported but rare fatal reactions but no more than with commonly available over the counter medicines.

I have been doubled jabbed and had no noticeable reactions. When in the RAF we were immediately vaccinated for around 15 or so diseases and aside from Yellow fever where one guy collapsed no reactions, and all in one sitting !

My advice would be to get jabbed but I also think individual freedom to choose trumps any form of Government obligation. Practically all deaths from COVID have been in the elderly and medically vulnerable but younger and fit people die of COVID and alot depends on the “viral load” you are exposed to.

Best of luck with job search !

Great. Can I get a vaccine passport please? But I don’t want to get the jab.

So is that true there’s no obligation to have a vaccine?

There is no legal obligation but yes you won’t get a vaccine passport and that will lead to restrictions which is a type of coercion and that I am against

I thought this thread was dead?
I still believe OP was just a troll, and I’ve got no time for the anti-vax conspiracy theorists, but if by chance he/she was not a troll, then one thing they hadn’t considered is that: just because the UK does not have compulsory vaccination at the moment, does not mean we might not decide to impose it in the future, and if that happened, he/she would have just shot theirself in the foot big-style :laughing:
