Won't happen, as I pass.

Of course they will be, unless they are not.

Vaccinated with what?  The government  has 35 days to make its fantasy come true. Do they have even have the assets of equipment and personnel to deliver the doses?

Ok, nice move

now have a talk about the 10 000+ freelances flowing on the island

as soon as the first tourists start to arrive, you could have few super spreader among them

Deport and exile all residents and replace them with fully vaxed up generals is a more likely scenario ????
