Yeah, I agree. The fact that's still only being used per EUA makes the whole thing really fucking crazy. I've heard they're thinking they'll have at least one of these vaccines fda-appeoved in a more traditional sense within the year. Kinda makes you wonder if they're just holding out for that - bc all the proposed vax mandates have sorta been half measures so far. Lot of talk with nothing actually backing it yet.

What if they get their traditional approvals, and all of it is no longer considered emergency use, or experimental?

Idk it seems like those last two lines kinda cover em. I don't think the ADA is quite as broad as a lot of people think. Not getting vaccinated probably isn't going to fly as a disability. Certainly worth a shot. I'd like to note that I'm not against you in any way - I have not and will not be getting any of the covid shots. I'm also trying to be realistic in my expectations tho

Editing to provide an extra thought - its kinda always been a thing for public schools and stuff to demand that your child have certain vaccinations in order to attend. Employers have also been allowed to drug test their employees if they choose. I'm all for freedom, and that includes businesses being free to impose whatever nonsense they like. The market tends to weed this type of bullshit out on its own.

Bc hipaa doesn't do this. Hipaa provides that your employer can't contact anyone in Healthcare and get your records without your consent. This has been being cited incorrectly so so often all throughout covid. Hipaa is actually a pretty narrow set of guidelines that cover pretty specific circumstances and industries.

This image is a little misleading unfortunately. Headline #1 insinuates that South Africa as a whole was opting out of the vaccine then headline #2 suggests that they're being punished for it. Article #1 just states they said "please stop sending we have a large supply already and you should send elsewhere that doesnt." ...article #2 may still be a threat regardless tho.

Imagine sitting outside this courthouse protesting for justice for the dead chomo

Yeah well have you ventured down into the city? It's required there still everywhere.

I went across the country to Portland somewhat recently and people were wearing them walking around outside lol

I also work in bucks, so that explains why our experience is so similar haha

PA here, and where I'm at there's none of this really going on except in Philadelphia. I think it's more in liberal cities than anything else

You know when you're arguing with someone, and they think that just because that have facts that directly contradict everything that you're saying, they're somehow right? Fuckin anti vaxers man.

/s

Would be fun to tell people when they ask you for proof of vaccination you start saying "yeah I got an experimental new covid vaccine. It's more old school. They just injected me with a slightly weakened virus a day or two ago so I'm good now."

Yeah, you know when you try to go to a restaurant and they're closed or you can't go in for whatever reason so you sit down in the parking lot and eat old bread out of a backpack.

My favorite part of all of this is how, as the person who will have to "eat in the rain," you're not even allowed to respond in any way bc then you're a science denier and get banned from most platforms.

Common cold has always been the 'rona. So now every new cold is a new "rona variant"

People are starting to relax, quick, pretend it's worse.
