That sucks that Sweden and Denmark (re)introduced vaccine passports. At least they don't have mandates yet.

Ah. When you write "100% of the population is not vaccinated" that's ambiguous. It can either mean 'nobody is vaccinated' or 'not everyone is vaccinated'.
No, I was asking you for clarification.
Nowhere else has vaccine mandates yet AFAIK so pretty much anywhere would be better in that regard.
Sweden and Denmark are good from what I hear. There are also several states in the US that are good (e.g. Florida and Texas), for those who can come to the US.
You're saying if even one person isn't vaccinated, nobody is?
