Your employer is not a covered entity no matter how much you want them to be they are exempted. This is from the .gov direct

Who Is Not Required to Follow These Laws
Many organizations that have health information about you do not have to follow these laws.
Examples of organizations that do not have to follow the Privacy and Security Rules include:
Life insurers
Employers
Workers compensation carriers
Most schools and school districts
Many state agencies like child protective service agencies
Most law enforcement agencies
Many municipal offices
Your employer can ask all they want and you can choose to tell them or not but noncompliance is not a covered activity so HIPAA flat out doesn’t apply.
Speaking of employers, anyone else wondering why Congress immunized these public employees from CoupFlu related liability....
....but is refusing to protect businesses?
And why aren’t businesses, large and small, out there demanding the same kind of liability protection from Congress?!
that’s interesting as before i sent off my email i checked with three different lawyers who all told me i was under no obligation to inform my employer of my vaccination status.
