He should inform customers who he deals with, because all walks of life go to these places.
People who work in the heath sector, hospitals, nursing homes, working with people who have learning disabilities.
So yes, people need to know!

It's ironic really as today before I knew, I got into an argument with HR who say I have to go back in permanently and immediately. I've told them I refuse as cases are rising and there's been multiple outbreaks on site so it's not being managed. All I got was a "it's not negotiable" and now I'm likely to have to self isolate after one day on site. Says it all really!

OK, I think many people raise a lot of issues based in what I said so I will try to answer to all:
@Infamous: I don't think I tried to silence anybody. Quite the contrary. I said that ideas should not be heard or not heard based on vaccination status
IDreamed & @spiritboy: I am under the impression that although unvaccinated people can spread the virus easier, vaccinated people can spread as well. Also vaccinated people will most likely not get seriously sick because the vaccine protects them. If all the above are correct, there is (within limits) no reason to worry about anyone else's vaccination status, besides your own and your loved ones'.
@Bodyshop: the idea that unvaccinated people are responsible for the variants is not only unsubstantiated but also unscientific to the max. It's one of those arguments that people think it's true just because it gets repeated so often. It's absolutely false
Parkelife & @wave: governments can choose what type of restrictions should be put in place. In regards to the hospitality industry, if a government decides that unvaccinated people should not work there, that means that the employee has the right to know the employer's vaccination status, not any random customer since this falls within the sphere of personal medical data.
- My personal opinion is that vaccination is of value to protect yourself to a certain extent if such protection is needed. Anything more or less than that is basically nonsense. Personally I would keep away from anybody coughing, I wouldn't ask his vaccination status and then decide how much distance I would keep based on that. On the same note, I wouldn't be afraid of anyone without visible covid symptoms regardless of the vaccination status simply because I am vaccinated so that offers enough protection within logical limits.

I wonder how far along the cowboys are with providing people with fake covid certification. It won’t be long if not already.

So,yes I agree,screw them.Originally posted by BodyShop View PostWhy is the idea absurd? If you simply refuse to be vaccinated you're potentially helping the virus to mutate to more powerful and dangerous variants,it's as simple as that (among other stuff).
I definitely agree.this should be a Public matter and everyone should know who they're dealing with.
I mean,ok ,you're free to choose to not be vaccinated but also take the consequences of your choice.DUA LIPA - RIHANNA - THE WEEKND - DOJA CAT

For three weeks into the new school year (which starts in 2 weeks in my state)... kids have to wear masks inside the building (but not outside anymore)... and then ... they want to abolish the mask mandate for students in my state... that is the hope of Miss education, Karin Prien who is the school / education minister of my state.
I can't at the ridiculousness of it all... as if in 3 weeks Delta is gone and all 5 to 18 y.o. will be vaccinated... and as if keeping the 1,5 distance is actually possible... in rooms that have 30+ kids in them but are only like 25m² big. lol.
the non-brain and low IQ that she is once again showing... is baffling.My Chart

WTF is this black fungus add on..
India records more than 4,300 black fungus deaths – report
There have been 45,374 cases of the infection mucormycosis - known as black fungus – in India, the BBC reports.
The illness, which is caused by exposure to a mould often found in soil, air and human mucus, mainly affects COVID patients.
It spreads through the respiratory tract and doctors sometimes have to remove the eye to stop it reaching the brain.
The infection is said to usually strike 12-18 days after recovery from coronavirus.
So far, more than 4,300 people are reported to have died of it in India." Princess of Pop Katy Perry "

Like the above link that are SEVERAL ,in which scientists explain why unvaccinated people are "variants fatctories" . And no ,its not true because it's gets repeated often. It's true because it's obvious, you should double-check your sources because you are the one spreading false information here.
If you have an organism protected against a virus by being vaccinated and producing antibodies against that said virus, you can still catch it and become sick but by having more chances to win the battle against it, you're also potentially killing the chances of that said virus to become stronger because you didn't have antibodies to combat them if you otherwise hadn't been vaccinated.
it's actually so simple that I feel kinda embarrassed to have to write that for someone as intelligent as you.

Well, replications are responsible for mutations (as the article says) so I am not sure why the author (or anyone else for that matter) would assume that replication of the virus does not happen in vaccinated individuals as well. It may happen in much lower levels but it does happen, since infections of vaccinated people are common.
So since vaccines reduce but do not stop infection and transmission, it's illogical to think that only unvaccinated people are responsible for mutations.

Turkey will be a hotspot of Delta variant once this religious holiday ends.
It is 4 weeks in EU, as far as i know. In UK, it was 8 weeks (!!) and now they accept anyone for the 2nd dose 4 weeks after the first one.
