Younger voters were twice as likely to oppose the vaccine in the poll of 2,237 people aged between 16 and 75. To gauge readers&#8217; views on the topical issue, <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Express.co.uk<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0conducted an exclusive poll asking: &#8220;Should Britons be forced to have the coronavirus jab once it is developed?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Sixty-five percent (2,906) of respondents said no, with many saying they would have to be dragged kicking and screaming to have the vaccine administered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Thirty-four percent (1,617) said a compulsory vaccine programme should be rolled out across the UK, one of Europe&#8217;s hardest-hit countries since the beginning of the pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">One percent (60) said they didn&#8217;t know.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">One reader said they would not feel safe having a coronavirus vaccine injected into their body because they simply cannot trust pharma giants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">They said: No vaccine, whose manufacturer demands an indemnification, can be trusted.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">A second person said any attempts to force a vaccine on Britons as the country returns to the new normal would cross a dangerous line in the sand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">They said: &#8220;Forced vaccinations will mark the transition of Britain from a representative democracy into a totalitarian technocracy.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">And yet a third said if a person did not wish to avail of the virus vaccine but was pressured to do so it would amount to assault.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The reader wrote: &#8220;Forced vaccination would amount to physical assault upon the person.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">&#8220;And those attacked in such way would be fully justified in using whatever means to defend themselves from such assault, as I will do.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">One 71-year-old diabetic man acknowledged he was in the high-risk category for the disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">But he insisted he would rather gamble with the potentially deadly infection rather than be injected with a vaccine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">He explained: &#8220;They are pointless as the germs mutate too rapidly for the vaccine to keep up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">&#8220;On the other hand, they put mercury and other aggressive antagonists in the vaccines to trigger an immune system response.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">&#8220;Who knows what damage this does to us?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">&#8220;I would rather take my chances and accept that if my time to die has come, so be it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a
