Two in five Britons support compulsory vaccination against Covid-19, according to a poll.
A Savanta ComRes survey of over 2,000 adults in the UK also reveals that almost two-thirds (65 per cent) are in favour of countries requiring proof of vaccination to enter.
More than half support a “vaccine passport” that would give more freedom of movement to those inoculated against the virus.
It comes as travel restrictions at UK border are heightened in order to limit the number of new mutations of Covid-19.
Despite support for travel restrictions — and a slight increase of seven points in approval for the government’s handling of the pandemic — only one quarter of UK adults are optimistic about going on a foreign holiday in 2021.
The poll also found that just over half (53 per cent) of Britons support pubs and restaurants being able to refuse entry to customers who haven’t had their vaccine, compared to less than one in five (19 per cent) opposed to this idea.
