Los Angeles has gone loco with its vaccine mandate

I live in a CA county (Contra Costa) with a vax mandate for indoor dining. Last weekend I went to the Getty Museum in LA.

Interestingly, I’ve been to 10 restaurants in my county since the mandate, and only 1 has asked for evidence of the vax (and I won’t go there again).

And the Getty stated on their website that the vax (or negative test) was needed to enter, but they checked for neither.

So—much of this is theater, and government bullying.

I think they are missing at least one thing. Someone needs to propose that they start tatooing your ‘vac ID on your forearm.

I know bars and liquor stores check IDs, but can they be punished for not checking them? I thought they only got in trouble if underage drinkers were served.

I think for "In 'n Out" it was the Health Department that shut them down.

The mayor of LA was vaccinated and he got the chinese virus. Good!!

So does the Health Department have the authority to mandate that business check for vaccination cards on their own time and own expense? Again, if the Heath Department finds a health risk, sure they shut a place down. But they apparently shut down In ‘n Out for simply failing to perform an action, as opposed to having a restaurant full of disease.

I’m currently making a trip to the local hospital for treatments. The staff, ‘fully vaccinated’ is being thinned by new Wuhan infections. My wife and I got it after being ‘fully vaccinated’. Can’t see how carding people in restaurants and bars is going to help. I’m coming to the conclusion that much of this is to get people used to doing as they are told.

[Dr. Sivana]

I agree with you, but whether we like it or not, health departments have pretty broad powers for defining a safe environment.
