It's in the nature of vaccination programmes that a minority of the population who decline to be vaccinated benefit from the fact that the majority are protected. The trick is to ensure that the minority doesn't become a majority.

It might be the case that only those that have had a vaccine are allowed to travel to countries still deemed to be high risk or some countries might only accept vaccinated people.
Few would disagree with travel restrictions being tied to vaccination - but your original "refuse [the unvaccinated] a passport to a normal life" implied something rather more draconian, whether that was your intention or not.
