No vaccine, no service? Restaurants weigh options

Proof of COVID vaccination is already happening at outdoor venues and even some colleges.

Soon, it may even determine where you can eat.

On May 19th, capacity limits will be lifted, but people are still required to stay 6 feet apart. Requiring a vaccine could be a way around that.

The New York State Restaurant Association says the state is considering waiving the 6-foot rule for restaurants who only serve vaccinated guests.

President of the Restaurant Association, Melissa Fleischut, says the option is being considered by restaurants across the state.

"It's been a mixed bag. We definitely talked to operators today that had concerns that really didn't want to put themselves or their staff in a position where they had to turn away guests that weren't vaccinated," she said. "I've also talked to others that are really excited about the idea of getting more people inside their venues... If they could have everybody vaccinated and eliminate the six feet then they could put more people inside so they were interested in whether or not the state would come forward and start to say that this is something we could do for the restaurant industry."

Maybe non-vaccinated people should be turned away from supermarkets; you know, as an incentive.

Fine. I won’t eat at your a-hole restaurant. See how that goes over you bunch of d-bags.

No, just require that they wear a big sign reading "Unclean" and ring a cowbell while they walk. Sackcloth and ashes are optional.

Breakthrough infections and vaxxers still shed virus. Good luck!

Vaccinated. Unvaccinated. What problem?

Well, you see, my wife and I are in a mixed marriage and we were hoping to ...

Nein! Es ist verboten!

And dictating which vaccines you get?

Why stop with Covid?

Why not mandate Flu vaccine as well?

And there are others we get when traveling internationally, go ahead and require those. Collect them all. Put them on a Monopoly style passport “gameboard” and the public will comply.

The free market will work this out.
Just one of the many benefits of capitalism.
