Mandating vaccines is un-American. My body my choice

"Paper proof is so easily forged and is basically worthless."

Except I am going to have to be able to use my paper proof to get my digital proof.

It may have already been close. And if it comes back, then no one will worry about a little detail like proper CV vaccine identification to get on a cruise ship. Be careful if you worry about the trees and do not worry about the forrest.

No thanks. In THIS FREE COUNTRY we do not believe in gov. tyranny. Worry about yourself, not everyone else.

On the other hand, if you are scared of someone else that may or may not be vaccinated, then YOU stay home.

Interesting. I have not seen one store with a sign that said that any of their staff were vaccinated against the FLU or any disease. NOT even in all those "other" countries I have lived in or traveled to.

This is not about vaccinations. You will never be able to dictate that the world keep you safe. If you cruise, you will have many people working on that ship that are from other countries with different standards. You will also have people who may have been vaccinated and capable of carrying the virus. You may also have people that were legally exempt from vaccination, but the ADA will not allow that they be excluded. There have always been environmental risks. There will always be risks to living. You take one every time you get in your car.

My advice is that you always look to your own life goals. Do you prioritize quantity or quality. You will die. You cannot control the world. Make your decisions based on how they effect you.

Mandated and documented is a hilarious and foolish idea. First off, we do not yet know how long this vaccine lasts as to the effectiveness. I've been told by medical professionals that they believe it will be about like the flu shot and only last a "season." I can see it now, "mam, I am going to have to issue you a citation as your shot has expired."
Some folks have way too much time on their hands, but not enough time or intelligence to reason something out. Our gov is already out of control and needs to be reigned back.
Sorry, but if you are too afraid of others to leave your home, then stay home...period.

Or tattoo at least with tattoos they won’t have ability to monitor or spy.

Cruises are way done the list of priorities, it personal choice, cruise ship are virus nursery anyway.

Amazing how easily we give up our liberty. Started with 9/11 and has stopped

That is an idealistic hope because you would need a bubble around the US. And a bubble around a ship cruise. And a bubble around all the cruisers as they went ashore. What would be the purpose of a cruise if you did NOT mingle with the locals? Maybe you could go to Antarctica without any stops and just look out at the glaciers? As long as the whole world is NOT vaccinated, when you travel, the risk would be high that you encounter some CV-positive people. Right now the medical experts are PREDICTING (?) that getting vaccinated completely protects you from CV. That can only be validated by time passing after most people in the US have been vaccinated and we have herd immunity. So to me, digital identification does not seem to matter much. There are other variables and some not yet known!

I’d much rather see you restricted out of your own fear. However, that being said, states probably could get away with mandating a vaccine shot. Personally, I have no intention of getting the vaccine shot until enough time has gone by that I feel confident in its level of efficacy and that there are no long term side effects. Nothing so far has proven to be effective in slowing the spread of this virus, not masks, not social distancing...nothing, and I am not convinced this vaccine will either. Infections continues to rise regardless, yet mortality rates continue to decline, suggesting to me herd immunity may be the reason. Thanks, but I’ll accept the risk and forgo the shot.

Sounds like you are wishing for "Mark of the beast". I wish for a free America.

Service workers have gone to work WEARING MASKS, keeping their distance as much as feasible and washing their hands more than ever before. This is NOT living a normal life if you ask me. Also, I do not believe for one moment that most people have not feared going to work and dealing with the general public. An individual would have to be very uninformed to do that.
