British Health Officials Suggest COVID-19 Vaccine Could Be Mandatory

Hancock was asked directly by a reporter if getting the vaccine could be made compulsory, and replied that the question is "not one that we have addressed yet".

"I would hope given the scale of this crisis and given the overwhelming need for us to get through this and to get the country back on its feet and the very positive impact that a vaccine would have that everybody would have the vaccine." Hancock said.

Professor John Newton, who is overseeing Britain's coronavirus testing, then confirmed that mandating vaccinations is on the table.

"Clearly mandation is there, it can be used in some instances." Newton said, admitting however that "most successful vaccine programmes tend to be by consent."

"Although some countries have adopted mandatory programmes, the most successful programmes tend to be done on the basis of consent, good information and good delivery mechanisms." Newton said.
