In-N-Out Burger Sends Unmistakable Message to San Francisco's Vaccine Police

As if you needed another reason why In-N-Out Burger should be your favorite fast food place — or at least one of them.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the Department of Public Health temporarily closed the burger joint’s outlet at Fisherman’s Wharf on Oct. 14 after they refused to check visitors’ vaccine cards — leading to the company castigating San Francisco for its mandate.

It’s been the only San Francisco eatery closed for violating the mandate, according to the Health Department.

“Despite multiple warnings, In-N-Out employees continued to let customers into the restaurant without verifying their vaccination status since at least late September."

“In-N-Out acknowledged the enforcement violation, calling San Francisco’s indoor vaccination requirement ‘intrusive, improper and offensive’ governmental ‘overreach.’”

“We refuse to become the vaccination police for any government,” said In-N-Out’s Chief Legal and Business Officer Arnie Wensinger in a statement.

“It is unreasonable, invasive and unsafe to force our restaurant associates to segregate customers into those who may be served and those who may not, whether based on the documentation they carry, or any other reason.”

While the restaurant in the historic tourist area has reopened, it doesn’t feature indoor dining.

Of course, the city noted that it had tried repeatedly to get the restaurant to enforce the mandate.

In a statement, the Public Health Department said it had “attempted multiple times to bring the business into compliance with the health order” with no success.

“The business was instructed to cease all operations on site immediately because of the threat it poses to public health,” the statement read.

Kadvany called the In-N-Out’s refusal to check vaccination cards “the most brazen example of a San Francisco restaurant pushing back against the indoor vaccine check,” proof that San Francisco businesses needs to start getting more brazen.

In-N-Out should move their headquarters to Texas or Florida.

Close all corporate-owned stores and do a mass expansion elsewhere in the country.

I do believe In n Out has enough YouTubers wanting to sample their wares, that to move anywhere but Kalifornikatia would indeed bring more revenue.

They weren’t closed over the vaccine passports, they were closed because they put Bible references on some of their cups and cardboard food holders.

Lots of In-N-Out locations in Texas. I always order from the “secret” (unposted) menu.

The only real threat to public health in America today is leftism.

Everything else pales in comparison.

In n out is not suffering for revenue. They could probably build twice as many in my area and the lines would still be long 24/7.

Their beef is locally sourced. That’s why they haven’t expanded like other fast food companies.

Last time I checked, there were beef cattle in Texas.

San Francisco - where the city government deems hamburger restaurants as health hazards but approve gay bath houses, public defecation, widespread homelessness, and shooting up street drugs.

But...uh, those are politically-correct health hazards, therefore allowable, even sacred!
