Spain will keep a registry of people who refuse the vaccine and share the data with partner countries.
I know a few people who will be on the freedom or rights conspiracy bandwagon when they see this.

@divegeester saidThey have said it won’t be made public but I’m assuming it will be used to control the infection in terms of crossing internal borders.

It must be a difficult thing to maintain borders when a big part of your reason for existence is based on doing away with them.
Perhaps the non vaccinated will be asked to take a point of entry covid test.
@divegeester saidDo you think that those who refuse the vaccine should be allowed to travel internationally, potentially spreading the virus wherever they go? That is completely irresponsible, and any country that does not attempt to protect their people by at least testing those who cannot show proof of immunization is equally irresponsible.

What a wally!
@suzianne saidNo vaccine is 100% effective and, in any case, if the people of the host country have some version of vaccine-induced herd immunity, COVID shouldn't spread very far based on one infected visitor.

I'm all for getting the vaccine, but banning people who don't is overkill and unnecessary.

@suzianne saidNo, but if it’s not effective past 7 months, or so, then what’s the point and how will it be monitored?

It would be interesting to see their DPIA on this.

you use that a lot. You usually follow up with a "therefore" but now you simply jumped to another idea like a bad record player.
Seatbelts aren't 100% effective either. Drug laws. Safety regulations in construction. Brakes.
"banning people who don't is overkill and unnecessary."
In your professional opinion. Or some other expert's opinion who has said that it's fine to let an unknown number of unvaccinated spanish people travel to whatever country they want, country that may or may not have adequate vaccination in place then just travel back.
