If you’re an actual criminal in NYC, you might be given a free pass if it’s not something major. If it is something major, you might be let out of jail with $0 bail. If you violate the passport mandate?
Vaccine Passport Enforcement in NYC Began This Week, Violators Face Up to $5,000 Fines
Enforcement of New York City’s “Key to NYC†Pass began this week, requiring businesses such as restaurants and gyms to discriminate against unvaccinated individuals by denying them entry into their establishments.
Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) originally announced the mandate in mid-August while touting a month-long period to educate the masses on the move, which requires gyms, restaurants, and entertainment venues to bar unvaccinated individuals from entering their establishments or face monetary consequences.
“It’s time for people to see vaccination as literally necessary to living a good and full and healthy life,†he said at the time, softly rolling out the policy in mid-August. Inspections and enforcement, however, began this week. Now, per the city’s mandate, individuals who are eligible to be vaccinated must show proof of at least one shot of vaccination to eat at an indoor restaurant, bar, or other eatery, via a copy of their vaccination card or proof on one of the city or state apps.
Further, according to the Wall Street Journal, “the city amended its work rules to allow employers to fire fast-food workers who refuse to show proof of vaccinationâ€:The city on Monday is beginning to enforce the vaccination-proof mandate, with inspectors from various agencies checking for signs and written plans, a spokeswoman for the New York City’s mayor’s office said. Restaurants have had to comply with the rule since Aug. 17, though some New York City owners said they have been waiting for the full mandate to kick in before beginning to card customers.
New York’s rules allow customers without proof of vaccination to be inside a restaurant for a short period, roughly 10 minutes or less. Customers can use the bathroom, pay a bill or order takeout, the city says, but still must wear a mask. They can also be served outside.
What happens if a business is in violation?
Businesses that fail to comply could face thousands of dollars in fines — a devastating blow to businesses still attempting to recover from the mass shutdowns, particularly in New York City, last year. The first violation will be $1,000, but further offenses could result in fines up to $5,000.
There doesn’t seem to be any penalty on individuals, just that businesses can deny entry, and it seems suggested that they should, Comrade. And there’s a requirement for everyone 12 and up. Wait, 12? They aren’t eligible for the vaccine. Want to go to a restaurant, bar, aquarium, zoo, sporting event, gym, adult entertainment (and so much more)? They’ll be required to ask for your passport. Interestingly, grocery stores and most retail stores are exempt. Want to work there? You have to have the proof. Comrade.
Meanwhile
(Fox News) And nearly half of those questioned in a Quinnipiac University survey released Wednesday say the president’s actions to combat the surge this summer in coronavirus pandemic cases due to the highly infectious delta variant go too far.
By a 51%-48% margin, a slight majority of Americans disapproved of the president’s plans. In his most forceful comments to date, the president last week announced new, wide-ranging, federal COVID vaccine requirements for those working at companies with 100 or more employees, health care workers and federal contractors.
Forty-eight percent of those surveyed said Biden’s vaccine mandates go too far, with 10% saying they doesn’t go far enough and nearly four in 10 saying they’re about right. But asked specifically about mandating vaccines for workplaces with 100 or more employees, 53% approved and 46% disapproved.
Those are the numbers now. What will they be when businesses start cutting people with Biden/Harris bumper stickers to get below 100 employees? When the rule is actually released, and it causes all sorts of problems? How many of the people in the poll work for a company with less than 100 employees? But, you can see with numbers like that why Dementia Joe is attempting to do this.
We have always had vaccine mandates for schools
Conservatives always used to be about duty to the country and tge community
Now it us all about narcisstic freedom
We have always had vaccine mandates for schools
Perhaps in your zeal to hate, you missed that this fine is a restriction on businesses, not schools.
Conservatives always used to be about duty to the country and tge community
Still are. Liberals like you hate the US, and the freedoms it represents.
Now it us all about narcisstic freedom
“Narcissistic” is defined as:
extremely self-centered with an exaggerated sense of self-importance : marked by or characteristic of excessive admiration of or infatuation with oneself
To most intelligent people, “freedom” and “rights” are not “narcissistic.” Perhaps you may remember
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
While rights are not unlimited, exercising the right of commerce, association, etc., is not “narcissistic” as you are assuming that grant rights instead of protects them.
Tell us Hairy, when your governor and your city mayor told people not to worry about COVID and they should continue to live their lives without interruption, was that “”narcissistic?”
Were you being “”narcissistic” when you agreed with them?
Or is this more hate filled hypocrisy from you?
We all get that you hate freedoms, that you hate the rights of the people, and that you think government should control all aspects of people’s lives.
If you hate America that much, you should leave.
Then again, you’d take your hate with you because all the left has is hate.
Vaccines have been required in the past, however the nature of the vaccines were hundreds of years old (1700s). This vaccine is a new concept and people should feels free to consider. But the whole concept of this disease is a fubar. This is due to Nancy P and her people.
It’ll do wonders for NY Tourism, honest.
Not to mention the enhancement to small businesses.
Do demofascists just sit around dreaming up new ways to fuk America? Seems like it.
