Quebec tax on unvaccinated may be lawful but sets risky precedent - experts - Reuters, January 12, 2022

Published: 14 January 2022

Phoebe Friesen, Assistant Professor in the Biomedical Ethics Unit, is among the experts quoted by Reuters.

"鈥ζ还� biomedical ethicist Phoebe Friesen was concerned the logic of taxing unvaccinated people could be extrapolated to other behaviors seen as driving health spending 鈥� obesity, for example 鈥� but that are tied to marginalization. "If you want to be consistent and logical, you should charge all sorts of people for their hospitalization if it's based on behavior that they're 'responsible' for," she said "... And it's incredibly tricky to figure out what that looks like."
