And when I got Pfizer, I was specifically asked about anaphylactic shock, rashes, and reactions to immunizations at all.

So, either somebody was not doing their job and asking the questions, or .........

They never asked me that at boot camp, though. I just got in line and got about 10 injections in a row and went to do pushups "to work it out of your system' LOL.

Vaccine is basically proven to prevent, getting covid with hospital stay cost insurance thousands. So why should insurance company pay for the whiners that " don't wanna get it".
Unless you have a medical reason for not getting this vaccine that could prevent......well, I say, you are on your own sister.
Ps...same should go for smokers

I hope your weight and cholesterol levels are perfect, or else your "on your own" when you develop heart disease...

But we can't expect our premiums to stay constant while we continue to stretch their bottom line, especially when it only takes a vaccine to avoid, which btw, they are paying for.

No, the federal government is paying for it...

Sorry you misunderstood.

Sorry, but you're still contradicting yourself...

By banning the use of the vaccine passport, they are telling "offices, restaurants and businesses" that they cannot use that parameter to decide whom they serve...

The government, via DeSantis, is trying to control businesses' freedom to choose whom they serve.

The government (without input from DeSantis) has already told business that they do not have that freedom...

Only in certain, very limited cases...

A certain baker in Colorado comes to mind...

Yellow shot records required for travelling. A thing of the past?
 
I recall having to take a yellow shot record with me whenever I travelled, which documented vaccines against certain illnesses, two of which were smallpox and yellow fever. Can't remember the others. Some countries required it, and others didn't. This wasn't that long ago--seventies and eighties. I don't think these yellow "passports" are still required, but don't know for sure. So such things are nothing new.

I have mine right in my passport holder - they're made the exact size as the passport so you keep them together.

And, yes, the yellow passport sized vaccine record is checked - especially when going to the middle east.

Not to mention that there is a huge difference in dying "from" covid then dying "with" covid...

That line has been erased...

No way of knowing...

People sent to hospice to die of cancer were listed as "covid deaths"...

People who died in traffic accidents were listed as "covid deaths"...

Just because the tested positive...

Foreign countries have their own rules... We cannot control that...

Why has polio disappeared? Because for over 50 years the polio vaccine has been MANDATORY everywhere in the world!

The same with Small Pox, etc....

Are you forgetting how many diseases are gone because of VACCINES?

...and thereby being subject to government regulation. The businesses would be under the government's thumb and be forced to do what the government wants them to do...and that is refrain from requiring a vaccine passport. I'm agreeing with what you're saying. I don't see the contradiction, it's what I've been saying all along.

And the bigger issue and the real theme of this thread is that the action of regulating what businesses can and cannot do, which DeSantis is advocating, is contrary to conservative principles. This conundrum is the heart of the thread. I don't know how to make it any clearer.

Good point and I believe you are correct (except in the case of religious objection). So why is DeSantis piling on then? If businesses already do NOT have the freedom to decide whom they serve, what's the point of banning a requirement to show proof of vaccination?
