Summary: COVID vaccine mandates were introduced in 2021 for various groups, including health and aged care workers. State governments later implemented mandates for entry into public spaces. Some mandates have been removed as the pandemic situation evolved. Criteria for implementing or removing mandates include disease burden, population vulnerability, and vaccine effectiveness. Governments should consult with the community, provide transparent communication, and support private companies in mandate removal.
