Can the learned Freepers explain to me why it becomes anyone's business whether or not an individual has had the Covid vaccine. Certainly, this should be an individual's choice like every healthcare choice. Why is is not a HIPPA violation for anyone, employers, airlines, cruise lines etc to demand to see proof of vaccination (which is in essence a medical record?)

Would you take the vaccine if they were fully approved?
Pfizer has submitted for full approval and approval is expected by the end of the year.
This was always a primary question in the autism debates.
The "original anti-vaxxers" had concerns that standard childhood vaccines might increase the risk of Autism. Some parents wanted to skip these (approved) vaccines so that their child might be less likely to develop Autism.
Their attitude was "Everyone else is vaccinated. My child is not very likely to get Measles. They don't need a vaccine, because almost everyone else is vaccinated."
The counter-argument was, "Yes, my child is vaccinated. But my child will be put at risk if your unvaccinated child is allowed to attend school. Your child endangers my child and therefore vaccines must be mandated."
Some people pointed out that this didn't seem logical and that people who were concerned about Autism should be allowed to skip vaccines. My memory is that most Conservatives on this board were strongly in favor of the (approved) vaccines being mandated for everyone.

I would if I were in a high risk category. Old, obese, diabetic, etc? Yep.
But even if approved, I would not take the vax in the good condition that I’m in.
Given the current situation with our government, I think we should really consider worst-case scenarios, beyond the current COVID situation.
Let's say Pfizer has a completely new vaccine. well, maybe vaccine isn't quite the right term. What it does is decrease fertility by 85%. That's the goal. That's the purpose. Pfizer would like it to be mandated so that no one can travel, go to school, work, or buy groceries unless they can show proof of the new vaccination.
The problem, is that it isn't approved by the FDA, so this anti-fertility thing can't be mandated. And then the FDA waves its magic wand and automatically approves it, mandates it, and gives everyone 24 hours notice.
The law has been followed. Everything is great. Population control has been assured. You got nothing to complain about. Right?
My point is that I don't care at all about FDA approval. That could go horribly wrong ((see above). A real Conservative would oppose mandatory vaccines in absolutely any instance.
I haven't gone for the 'rona shots because I've already had the bug and don't want to take an experimental treatment on top of my own acquired immunity. In my immediate family, only our younger son has gone for the shots. He's an adult, and he had the right to make that decision. I pray he'll be OK. His brother is exposed to COVID patients every working day in the ER. He hasn't fallen ill and hasn't sought the vaccine either. Our bodies ourselves.
Was it an n95 mask? If not it’s a joke and doing more harm to yourself with no protection at all.
Part of the problem with all the anti-vax conspiracies is that they sow fear that somehow all of people’s rights are going to evaporate and that women and children will be hunted down in the street and carted off in cattle cars to be given their covid vaccination or something. Its fear porn.
I don’t mind getting the initial vaccine but then when no one comes back for a booster or follow up shot ? Reality will skin in and the search is on for a more workable, safer alternative.
Don’t trust them how?
People simply won’t want to be around you if you haven’t been vaxxed. The only people who find the anti-vax stance heroic are other anti-vaxxers.
It was nice going into my Walmart last night w/o that mask!!!!!
Don’t trust them about what? Stealing your facial identity?
“they can make getting it a condition of employment.”
And OSHA says you can then sue the beejesus out of your emoyer.
It’s gonna be don’t ask, don’t tell, except for leftist groups you shouldn’t be around anyway.
Because that's not what HIPAA is for.
Yeah they can.
Nope...
Sorry nice try. Play again
“believe the vaccinations are effective, and they have helped considerably in lowering the number of Covid cases, which has led to recent lessening of restrictions.”
I believe Ava Gardner was the most beautiful woman in the world and is waiting in heaven for me.
Except she really was a hottie!
My statement is as foolish, unfounded and specious as yours.
“If the mRNA history over the last 20 years is consistent. All you vaxxed will be dead within 2 to 5 years. This is why no mRNA was ever approved by the FDA in the last 20 years.”
That would make Bill really happy. He thinks the world population should only be 20% of the current number.
Exactly!
