Council of Europe resolution has been voted that prohibits states from making vaccination against the coronavirus mandatory or that it can be used to discriminate against workers or anyone who doesn't get vaccinated. Frightening that a resolution needed.
-----------------------
Some important points I noticed doing a quick skim
https://pace.coe.int/en/files/29004/html
7.3.1 ensure that citizens are informed that the vaccination is NOT mandatory and that no one is politically, socially, or otherwise pressured to get themselves vaccinated, if they do not wish to do so themselves;
7.3.2 ensure that no one is discriminated against for not having been vaccinated, due to possible health risks or not wanting to be vaccinated;
7.3.3 take early effective measures to counter misinformation, disinformation and hesitancy regarding Covid-19 vaccines;
7.3.4 distribute transparent information on the safety and possible side effects of vaccines, working with and regulating social media platforms to prevent the spread of misinformation;
7.3.5 communicate transparently the contents of contracts with vaccine producers and make them publicly available for parliamentary and public scrutiny;
7.5 with respect to ensuring the monitoring of the long-term effects of the COVID-19 vaccines and their safety:
7.5.1 ensure international co-operation for timely detection and elucidation of any safety signals by means of real-time global data exchange on adverse events following immunisation (AEFIs);
7.5.2 use vaccination certificates only for their designated purpose of monitoring vaccine efficacy, potential side-effects and adverse events;
7.5.3 eliminate any gaps in communication between local, regional and international public health authorities handling AEFI data and overcome weaknesses in existing health data networks;
7.5.4 bring pharmacovigilance closer to health-care systems;
7.5.5 support the emerging field of adversomics research which studies inter-individual variations in vaccine responses based on differences in innate immunity, microbiomes and immunogenetics.
