"keep it local"... no Starbucks in Puna

Thanks for the clarification HOTPE. Maybe we should call it Local+.

It matters on a local level, which is why I posted about Starbucks and not General Electric or any of the many other companies who are dropping the requirements.  

Punatics who need to avoid unvaccinated persons might factor the information into their decisions on where to shop and where to get their coffee.  Safeway may not be the safest way.

Punatics who are unvaccinated and who need income, have a new opportunity.

Your argument is that anyone who decides to remain unvaccinated dictates what everyone else should do or where they can go?

Is that right? I just want to clarify this first.

"Punatics who are unvaccinated and who need income, have a new opportunity."

This statement has me confused .

I agree, it makes little sense. Perhaps Puna Grace might want to qualify his or her statement?

In theory, more businesses without a vaccine mandate means more opportunity for the unvaccinated to find employment.

However, customers might avoid those same businesses for the same reason. I don't want an unvaccinated person making my coffee.

Lack of common standards/enforcement means the COVID will be with us for years to come. Hooray for "freedom".

Thank you kalakoa for helping folks understand my post.   I was perplexed by the confusion so I asked two grade schoolers to read that post.  They also had no trouble making sense of the simple sentences.   I will let it stand as written and ignore the silly interpretations.

I too had no problem understanding your post. Perhaps the others have caught Covid, which has been shown to reduce IQ in some cases.

Vaccinated people can still spread covid and that’s for all variants.

Although working at Starbucks isn’t exactly a new opportunity for the unvaccinated, I followed along.
Where can’t you work in the private sector unvaccinated on the East Side? That’s what I’m curious about.

The Brits came up with a risk assessor that calculated Omicron is less dangerous for elderly, vaccinated individuals than the common flu. Is there light at the end of Covid tunnel?
