And a new Pandora's box is opened.

As a bar owner, why can't I be open at full capacity, no masks, if people tell me they are vaccinated?  :mad1:

Are we going to have vax and no vax seating? :scratch:

And what about the folks who don't want to get the shot? :doah:

What are they going to be prohibited from doing?  :censored:

And if they don't plan on getting the shot, you think anyone is going to get them to keep wearing the mask when vaccinated people no longer need to do so?  :rotflmao:

How are we going to tell the difference between the two? :confused:

You got that right SteveO. Just the gubmint trying to control all us little people. Hippa Law prevents anyone from asking, so what are they going to do.

Hippa doesn't stop anyone from asking anything.   It prevents your provider from disclosing without your permission.     So you don't have to tell them whether or not you were vaccinated, and they don't have to let you into their place of business.     Sort of like going to Hawaii...  You don't have to tell the results of your recent covid test, and they don't have to let you leave your hotel room. :angry2: :sleazy: :confused:

It's going to be a problem, since there are no plans I am aware of for "vaccine passports" or any official thing like that.     Being as I am one of those people for whom getting covid was fairly likely to be a Very Bad Thing, as is my wife,  I got vaccinated at my first opportunity.   Sure is a relief to be able to go to the store without worrying, even if I still wear the mask.

i'm not going to argue over this, but i believe your wrong about HIPPA. or else employers where getting bad advise.

while i was "actively" working....every employer said the CANNOT ask!!!!!!

as far as the vacine itself........i cant believe with the 3 out there........it hasnt stepped up the timeline and there are more then eligible.

And I thought to when a person went into a place of business without a mask it was illegal for them to ask the person. Not sure if that is hipaa or not though.

 :scratch: https://www.cdc.gov/phlp/publications/topic/hipaa.html Looks to me that it is mostly about healthcare provider's, insurance companies, clearinghouses doing records/billing, & other businesses associated with that not sharing your medical records without your approval to me.

Maybe employers have different rules.   I look at the airlines and states requiring testing...   Must be allowed to ask about results.    Likewise schools and vaccinations...  Can't send kids to school unless you provide proof of certain vaccinations.

Might be a little less ink this go-round. I seem Yo remember Trump insisted on his signature being sent out taking credit for that batch.
Not saying that we needed to go more in debt either time. I’m ok with some help for those  that need it, but too many people who don’t need it are getting it on the high side, and too many people who don’t deserve it are getting it on the low side.

While I was north I noticed via email I had a MyChart message. Can't get there with my phone so last night I looked. Apparently I am now eligible for the rona shot, but I needed to make that appointment by March 11 or 12.🥴

So I sent a message last night. I asked if I could get it set up for my appt when my physical was set on march 23. They replied this morning, they don't give those at clinic visits and appears they have a rona specific location.

I also asked is I could get the 1 shot J & J vacines. They informed me they don't have that and don't know when it will become available. :pouty: with ad big as Centracare is in this area I can't believe they can't get that one. :pouty:

So, I'll wait until my appointment and talk to da doc. Or say screw it. If I get the shot or shots they can kiss the mask think up there wazoo. :moon:

 :scratch: Good luck!! Most of the time while we were back home I could've gotten an appt the next day for almost anytime I wanted @ Walmart in GR. Now that they've opened up who's eligible I can't find any pharmacy, hospital, or clinic within 50 miles of us that has any openings for the next week. When another day is added to the vaccination calendar at any of these places it seems as if it's filled almost immediately. I even checked with Itasca County DPH. :crazy: :pouty:

Sorry to hear that, Gunner. I thought you had it all set up. We are scheduled for the second one this week. Good luck—you have to keep trying.

Thanks guys, not really that surprising as when we were in Iowa the eligibility list was just 65 & over. Now, just 2.5 weeks later there is 18 different groups that are eligible. :doah:  I'll just blame it on Timmy ;) :rolleyes: like most here do.  :pouty:

When we got our first one.  Me at Thrifty White and my wife at the Clinic here they did the mandatory line you up with the second shot at the time of your first visit.  We both know we are getting our second shot in an week or so.

:scratch: This looks to be the case everywhere I've looked as well. It wasn't totally apparent at Walmart however but Walgreens, Thrifty White, & the others mentioned it when I was looking to make an appt. I see where Walmart in GR added next Monday to their vaccination calendar sometime overnight so I could've got my 1st shot then had I wanted. :happy1: :cool: I haven't talked to my brother yet about it so I'll wait & see if I can't get both of us scheduled for a day when we are going to town anyway. Now that I see how their program is set up I'm hopin it won't be a problem.
