Good point! It’s also why I think strengthening requirements around ID’s and voting and whatnot is just a waste. We could just ask people if they’re casting a legal vote.

Ilol pass you were supposed to back up your point tho ?

Article below.
In short, Employers can ask the employee if they've been vaccinated. Employers cannot ask the employee's health care provider if the employee has been vaccinated without the consent of the employee. And once the employer has the information, they cannot share it.

You don't have to answer every question. Think of it like the cell phone, just because it rings doesn't mean you have to answer it.

Ok.......

HIPPA keeps healthcare providers (your doctor) from disclosing your medical records to a third party. THAT IS ALL IT DOES.

Someone asking you a question is not a HIPPA violation.
Someone requiring you to answer a question about your health is not a HIPPA violation (it could be an ADA violation, but not in this case).
Your employer requiring a vaccine is not a HIPPA violation.
Your employer asking you if you got a vaccine is not a HIPPA violation.
Your employer calling your doctor to ask if you got a vaccine is not a HIPPA violation.
Your doctor ANSWERING that question IS a HIPPA violation. THAT IS THE ONLY THING THAT IS A HIPPA VIOLATION.

Everyone thinks HIPPA is some universal medical nondisclosure law. It isn't. It only applies to places that hold copies of your medical records, and says what they can and can't do with those records. It has NOTHING to do with anything else.

Ok, I said I gave up on trying to explain HIPPA. I guess I was wrong about that.

Health information such as diagnoses, treatment information, medical test results, and prescription information are considered protected health information under HIPAA, as are national identification numbers and demographic information such as birth dates, gender, ethnicity, and contact and emergency contact information.

Nick, I’m positive that you looked like you had something. They’re just trying to narrow it down. Could be rabies. Could be all sorts of stuff. Just a shot in the dark I bet.

Think of all the body fluids and needles that he has been around,, He has to be suspect

Y’all are deeks 🤣🤣🤣

My employer knows 100% which employees have or have not been vaccinated without asking them.

How is it a HIPPA violation? No one is giving out your medical info. It's not against the law to ask you a question. You don't have to answer

So maybe it’s not a legal violation. It still doesn’t feel right and it’s offensive . They’ve already started pushing the agenda to be mandatory for certain things . It feels like there just testing the waters like a poll to see who is complying and whose not . I’m not a statistic I’m a person and I don’t like it .

Don’t and say you did. What are they going to do? It’s a form.

Was there a “do you own firearms “ question on the form?

This is absolutely correct. All of the information is highly protected. And that protection says that companies who gather that type of info in order to do business with a person MUST protect it and not leak/sell/divulge this type of information to another party. There is absolutely no law that says a company cannot require this information in order to do business with a person or to allow a person onto their property. A person ultimately has the choice to not provide that information and not do business with that company.
