Just saw where LSU will require all Tiger Stadium guests 12 yrs of age or older to provide poof of vaccination or a negative COVID 19 test taken within 72 hours prior to entry. Has anyone in the know heard anything about this for TECH? Sadly, I believe a lot of schools will be going that way.
Since it's state property, I could see them requiring whatever protocol that is required for entry into any other state buildings....Quote:

Was thinking the same thing but I saw that about a lot of other things that have happened over the last 2 years
I can't imagine anyone would be going to the games if that happens. I will not be presenting any private medical records to attend anything.
You wouldn't need to show a paper proof of vaccine. They could just keep some paper clips at the gate to see if you're magnetized. If the paper clip sticks, you've clearly had the vaccine.
Or a UV light to see if your blood is glowing? They could try that.

So don't give them your super private top secret classified medical secrets. And don't go in.Quote:

In this case it's not the government wanting your medical secrets (err, secret). It's ostensibly the bar. And what we have is the big government getting into Billy Bob's business.
I think I could "steel man" your argument some for you but I'm not really inclined to do that (because I'd still be right, and nobody else is looking to get convinced one way or the other).
I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings when I implied you supported "big government" over private business just because you support a law that does so. We all contain multitudes.
I don't really think the Texas legislature is "woke." The magnetized bottle caps makes for a better joke anyway.
As well they should. That's one thing government can do; step in when there is an injustice against consumers and citizens. Billy Bob's was OVER-REACHING. Billy Bob's is in the BAR business. They are not in the health business. They have NO BUSINESS checking people's "vaccine papers" like Nazi's. Don't be a Vax Nazi, inudesu.Quote:

From my experience, HIPPA only prevents healthcare providers from sharing your private info without your approval. It does nothing to prevent a private business or government owned facility from asking you to provide information to gain admittance. You can choose to meet their demands or do business elsewhere. I hope every business that requires this proof sinks like a rock, but they are allowed to do it if they want. Just like I think a business can choose not to serve someone for a multitude of other reasons if they want. Society will determine if they make it.
No, they are not. I just provided you evidence to the contrary (the link), and then you go and say "they are allowed to do it if they want". I don't really know what to do with that. LOL! :laugh:Quote:

Meant to quote HD. Lack of edit button on mobile…still sucks!
From the exact definition and purpose for HIPAA.
It gives patients more control over their health information. It sets boundaries on the use and release of health records. It establishes appropriate safeguards that health care providers and others must achieve to protect the privacy of health information.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbc...2517462/%3famp
That's exactly. right. I do believe that's the first time you've ever heard someone say that to you. :laugh:Quote:

It would be much different if the rule was announced before season ticket sales began.

It is a practicality and a compromise. PCR results take time. Hawaii used to have the same 72 hour requirement for people to travel there and many people were not getting their results until the day of travel.Quote:

The PCR test would hopefully catch that, so the result, like most protections related to COVID (masks, vaccines and social distancing) is that on balance it reduces virus spread but does not eliminate all risk.
Hell, many are getting sick and passing the China flu even after being vaccinated. The literal need for the Boosters proves the original shots are not effective.Quote:

If that is not enough, you, yourself, can wear one of the magical masks that prevent covid. (or sit at a magical dining table where covid doesn't exist, no mask required)
All of this is totally illogical, therefore, is totally political.
Politics has entered your world of sports and this is EXACTLY why TylerDawg (sp?) is always bringing politics into the conversation.
Politics governs every single thing in our lives and every single thing in our lives is affected by politics.
You have to remember that there are certain exclusive restaurants and hair salons where Covid can’t survive. They do exist and if you don’t believe me, just ask a Californian politician.
Covid doesn't exist at restaurant or dining tables either. I've seen this with my own eyes.Quote:

Therefore, based on all my observations, dining tables create magical covid free zones.
LOL! For Cowboys fans, every game is like getting a colonoscopy. :laugh:Quote:

So, how does an 18-yr old "ticket taker" account for that at the front gate??Quote:

Wondering what this will do to overall giving. Will people demand back just ticket money or LTAC money too?
I hear they will require proof of meat consumption and gym visit in the last 48 hours, as well as banning people above a certain BMIQuote:

Some young kid is responsible for that, or as a friend at another school said, all their ticket takers are in the 80s. It will be half time before people get in. There will be many of us that can watch at home instead. We need to be building fans, not running them off.Quote:

Just so we're clear, HogDawg doesn't want to see obese people banned from anything. However, I'm simply pointing out the absurdity of banning "non-vaxed" people from the same sporting events for the same absurd reasons.
My family is a testimony to the fact that obesity isn’t contagious.
Most of you are too smart for stupid analogies.
Email I just read that went out to students says they are encouraging vaccination by winter quarter. Students can provide a doctors note or a personal dissent to opt out. However, I wonder what the consequences will be for opting out?
Quarantine in a specially constructed holding facility. For their own good.Quote:
Originally Posted by techman05

What if they opt in and get sick from the vaccine?Quote:
