Oregon requires businesses to check for proof of vaccination for non-maskers

ONTARIO, Ore. — Most businesses in Idaho are relying on the honor code when customers without a mask say they are vaccinated, but that's not the case across the border in Oregon.

New guidance from Oregon Health Authority now requires businesses to check a customer's vaccine status if they want to relax their guidelines.

Restaurant owners like Jason Jugling, the owner of Plaza Inn in Ontario, wish the new health guidelines were clearer. Despite the new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Jugling is still requiring masks to be worn in his establishment.

“I still have that masks are required on the front door and most of our customers, our community is so supportive and they’ve said, 'we will do what we have to do to keep your doors open,'” he said.

Under the new guidance, business owners have two options: require proof of vaccination for those who wish to unmask or simply leave the mask mandate in place.

“I would say probably 60 -70% of our customer base does come in with a mask," Jugling said. "30% probably don't and I’m not going to ask 30% if they don’t. I don’t have the time. I will take their word for it, I’m not going to ask to see their card.”

Sarah Poe, director of Malheur County Health Department, understands that some businesses might not apply the new interim guidance, but said ditching your mask without proof of vaccination is not an option in the state of Oregon.

We go to a cheap optometrist in Hermiston. I like the business and we save a lot of money but you won’t be admitted without a mask, have to agree to the temperature check, and then are told which socially-distanced chair to sit in. And other businesses such as McDonalds would refuse service w/o mask.

Like the Trannies, tell ‘em you self-identify as “vaccinated”.

That’s dumb. All U.S. vaccine cards look identical and you’re not going to get some other design through.

You can still buy blank cards online.

Get a blank card.

Forge the information like on real ones that can be viewed online.

Be sure to use the name “Wile E Coyote” or “Donald J Trump.” If/when you are confronted just smile and say, “I know, I loved the Roadrunner cartoons so much I had my name legally changed. Beep Beep.” or “My parents name is Trump and they named me after the very successful real estate tycoon. Pretty cool, eh?”

They can’t ask for your ID unless you’re buying tobacco or alcohol so tell them you’re not. No worries.

Is this a law passed by the legislature and signed by the governor, or is it — like most everything covid — just some politician’s or some unelected bureaucrat’s wet dream ... a fantasy best left ignored by all free Americans?

Wear a mask going in, all nice and polite. Then take it off.

Fifth Amendment. It’s there for a reason.
