As I said and I will now repeat, you implied that it was fact.
You state it as though it's established fact rather than opinion. If you would have said "I believe..." or "In my opinion..." one would have understood more clearly what you meant, that it was just an opinion.

lol. Yes sir.

CDC: Vaccinated people can return to normal life after easing masking, distancing rules.



I don't care what they say, I will wear a mask outside as long as I might catch covid from someone who hasn't been vaccinated. The fact that covid will affect me less, if I catch it after being vaccinated, does not make me feel comfortable at all.

I find it odd how they attempt to project these suggestions as some sort of mandate or law, using language that literally infers what people “can” or “cannot” do. Like Biden saying people ‘may’ be able to have a small get together by July 4th, IF certain steps are followed. Does anyone actually believe these suggestions are legally binding in any way? They are trying to tell millions of people that in a few months they may be able to do things they’ve already been doing for the last year.

I guess maybe you? I don't think anyone else is confused about whether recommendations are the same thing as regulations.

We will see in spiking in cases goes up. Hopefully not.

Interesting you somehow deduced that I think these suggestions are actually regulations, when that is the exact premise I was going after. I think they carefully choose their wording to sound more authoritative than they actually are, is what I was getting at. I may have to carefully choose my wording to get my point across in the future. I thought you were were one of the wittier ones here that didn’t need green font.

An unexpected casualty of the pandemic, nail polish. I haven't been going anywhere so didn't bother doing my nails for a year. Now I find the polish in all the little bottles has thickened and dried. Normally I use it up before then. Need to but a whole new wardrobe of nail polish.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

LETS BURN OUR MASKS!

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

GOODBYE MASKS

A lot of businesses still require masks since they can't reasonably verify every customer for vaccination.

Brown: Oregon to follow CDC — all vaxxed, no masks

 

[BigGameDamian]

And with the "All vaxxed/No masks" phase, We might be seeing more of this.

Vaccinated People Free To Go Maskless, As "Covid Penis" Concerns Rise.

Covid penis is one less thing I have to worry about.

Great timing

Glad to see the gov lift the ban on mask for those vac'ed for many inside places.
So I didn't wear my mask at the gym this morning. Felt great!

Brown: Oregon to follow CDC — all vaxxed, no masks

So it’ll be a business’ responsibility in Oregon to violate HIPAA?

Papers, please!

Lol.

A private business asking if you're vaxxed isn't a hipaa violation.

Gleyber Torres becomes the eighth vaccinated Yankee to test positive for the coronavirus

Arizona took down the roadside signs encouraging vaccination. A Q supporting Trumper Republican state legislator said the signs looked like "communist China" and rammed a bill through Republican controlled legislature requiring state Department of Transportation to take down those commie signs.

Marjorie Taylor Green is shouting stop vaccination and stop wearing masks because Jesus or something.

Marjorie is authentically mentally ill.

 

[Lanny]

Lol.

It shows you some of the vast ignorance we're dealing with.

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

Personally, I’d call it ignorance with a massive side order of immaturity thrown in. but that’s just me……

 

[jonnyboy]

Lol.

I was just going off what Kate Brown said. She said they were examining options to give businesses the option to lift masking and distancing requirements - AFTER verifying vaccination status. It wasn’t mentioned in the article but in the attached video news snippet. What is your take on that comment?

 

[jonnyboy]

Lol.

A private business asking if you're vaxxed isn't a hipaa violation.

And yes it is. You’re not required to provide personal medical information in exchange for unrelated goods or services. It’d be like a business asking if you’re gay or straight. It’s private, personal information, and when you factor in health and medical history HIPAA absolutely comes into play.

 

[crandc]

You don't have to disclose. If you don't care to tell a business you are vaccinated, wear a mask.

Hipaa would apply if the company asked your doctor, and the doctor provided them that information without your consent. Them asking you has absolutely nothing to do with a hipaa violation, private businesses arent covered under hipaa regulations.
