Should private businesses have the right to ask customers for their vaccination status?
In an effort to end the COVID19 pandemic many governments imposed vaccine mandates on people who wish to enter private businesses. Politicians who supported the mandates argued that it would stop the spread of CV19 and encourage people to get vaccinated against it. Opponents argue that vaccination status is private health information and people should not be forced to share it. Proponents argue that unvaccinated individuals are responsible for spreading CV19 and prolonging the pandemic.

No

Medical records are personal and private. Each person has different beliefs as to what is good and what is bad. If you are vaccinated because you believe that will help you, you should not have any fear if I am vaccinated. If vaccinations do not work, and you catch what I have, it would make no difference if I was vaccinated or not. Personally, I would rather catch the disease and build up my own immunities, at home, and not worry about who is or who isn't since it has no bearing on if I am or if I am not. I think there are more germs on the vaccinated person who inspects your bag at the door because they have touched everything of everyone.

No, this is a violation of HIPPA
@9BQGH5ZRepublican11mos11MO
This is not a violation of HIPPA because you would be willingly giving out your information. You also do not have any right to go to whatever private business you want to. It is no different than a private business requiring clothing and shoes before entry.
@964MGDK1yr1Y

@9BNLJJQ11mos11MO
Private businesses can have access to that kind of information but must keeping short of any further move.
@9BNHCRT11mos11MO
Yes but only if necessary.
Yes I’m certain instances
@9BM9DPZ11mos11MO
Yes, if the private business is in contact with the costumer
@9BLXCSG11mos11MO
Yes, if it’s relevant to the field that the business is in
@9BLVK7ZIndependent11mos11MO
No, but maybe during COVID?
@9BLTV6411mos11MO
yes, but the customer doesn't have to answer
This depends, considering vaccination status is a private matter. But since it’s a private company, I don’t see it any less important and in their right to ask for these things. If schools can do it, private businesses should as well.
@9BLN4Z411mos11MO
Only for important vaccinations such as COVID and TB
