ChoiceIs every “frontline” worker FORCED to get a flu shot now, or do they have a choice?
So would I be somewhat correct in speculating they would also have a choice regarding the C-19 vaccine?Choice
COVID is different than the flu for a couple reasons. With the flu you're typically not contagious until you have symptoms. The opposite is true for COVID. So you may find that health care workers may not get to choose with this vaccine. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.So would I be somewhat correct in speculating they would also have a choice regarding the C-19 vaccine?
Good point.COVID is different than the flu for a couple reasons. With the flu you're typically not contagious until you have symptoms. The opposite is true for COVID. So you may find that health care workers may not get to choose with this vaccine. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
What will happen is places with large crowds, movie theaters, concerts, sporting events, airlines etc. will likely institute protocols whereby you need to prove vaccination in order to enter. I wonder if that means it will be easier to get a concert or Leafs ticket? Hey, I can dream.Good point.
With masks yes. More importantly, the CDC and other guidelines refer to close contact for 15+ minutes. Most shopping (especially with reduced capacities) doesn't fit that criteria while being in a movie theatre or gym could.But everyone is shopping now without vaccinations so that argument won’t hold.
Like the medical exemption card TJ bragged about printing off?Apparently those who get vaccinated will be given a card as proof. I hope it's got rigid security features in it to confirm authenticity, otherwise scammers will be selling fake ones withing 30 minutes.
TeeJay What a hero!Like the medical exemption card TJ bragged about printing off?
And the saddest part is this isn't meant as humour.If they put a microchip in the vaccine, there will be no need to use forgeable vaccine cards. No doubt things are moving in that direction, thanks to the megalomaniac Gates.
https://globalnews.ca/news/7516433/coronavirus-vaccine-nhl-buying/I thought I heard on the radio that the NHL is buying the vaccine in private sales. This can't be true. Trudeau will never allow it.
People used to be able to smoke almost anywhere, but now they can’t do so. Similar situation, I think, for the good of the population.But everyone is shopping now without vaccinations so that argument won’t hold.
Many businesses (grocers, pharmacies, etc) already require one to wear a mask before entering.
In the future they could change that to proof of vaccination etc.
At my dentist they require (or at least ask) i submit to a temperature check.
It also will mean substantial loss of customers. Many small businesses will still cater to everyone because they will need every sale they can get. If 30% of the population isn’t getting vaccinated that’s a lot of business potentially lost. There will always be someone out there willing to take customers other businesses don’t want.This would be a good way to start businesses up while the COVID is still a problem (vaccination cards). Obviously a cinemas, malls or restaurants can't be super spreader locations if they only allow vaccinated people.
sounds like 1940’s GermanyAs an alternative possibility to "vaccination passes" there are "passes" involving:
1. Test positive for C-19 antibodies & prove it
2. Test negative for C-19 & prove it
3. Wear a mask (e.g. N95)
4. Sit in separate smoking, er, non vaccinated, section of pub/bar, restaurant, bank, clinic, airplane, etc
5. Any combination of those above & other safety measures
They will gladly take a ramp to 60% over zero, I would. I'm guessing if more than 40% have it and benefiting without dropping dead, the 30% number will drop. Vaccination cards give businesses an early cash flow by keeping the spreaders out. In the end, I'm guessing those that refuse to get vaccinated are the same ones that caused the rest of us have to lock up in the first place.It also will mean substantial loss of customers.
