Hmm.again, I have to preface my post...the United States, on average, has historically done a decent job running a free-ish society for like 80 percent of its people for a very long time, making it one of the best in world history.
kinda sad, but let´s move on.
I just look out 5 years and can see stuff like:
-the contact tracing programs I mentioned...all the weird, wonderful, and wild possibilities in that family
-needing your temperature checked to get on a bus
-seriously beefed up immigration and movement laws courtesy of the incumbent administration
-¨no shirt, no shoes, no mask, no service¨
-health status used as a factor in housing in the wake of a mass eviction-mass relocation
-¨applicants must provide certification of immunity¨
-lockdowns, now normalized, employed for non-global pandemic reasons
as the people that make up our society, it´s time to start talking about what we want it to look like after this.
...or maybe I should just #passthat.
Hmm.
Stuff like getting your temperature taken and having to wear a mask before you enter is already happening at my job. It takes a second to get your temp taken with the contact less thermometer and I want to wear a mask to protect myself anyway.
I'm not sure stuff like having to present a immunity certificate to apply for something like, say a mortgage would come to light.
An immunity certification to apply for a job sounds reasonable. To apply as a nurse I got to demonstrate titers for diseases already.
Having to present immunity cards to enter establishments would've prevented that covid 19 positive person from entering the five clubs he went to in South Korea and they couldve kept the clubs open.
Most of the stuff you are listing aren't as bad as you're making it out to be.

Again, I've been one of the "doomsdayers" since Day 1. But there's a line that can't be crossed because the people in power think they know what's best for you. This goes beyond just COVID. In the 70s, they were literally dosing people with LSD to experiment with mind control. That's public info.
This comes down to citizens being responsible. If that dude who was COVID positive knew he was positive and still entered the club, that's an irresponsible idiot.
What is really the difference between China having this weird social score because they think they know what's best for their people, and us having to present ****ing certificates to prove we're no longer at risk of COVID? Again, think outside of the COVID scenario. This kind of **** extends waaay beyond just this pandemic.
I just went to IG to see the replies to this on this feed. I honestly think I lost about 10% of my brain cells from the 20 seconds I was browsing all the positive comments! It's UNBELIEVABLE!! Every person who posted on his feed, truly believe that the virus is fake, we should have never closed the country and we would have all been fine! SMH!!! Can't fix stupid I guess!!
I just hope that the state medical board sees this and bring him in and strip him of is license ASAP!! He is going to get people killed by not following the proper procedures to stay safe!! I really want him to go work in a C19 ward in NYC and those docs and nurses will put him in his place STAT!!
Is there a protocol for traveling to NYC at this time?
Has anyone here flown in?
My friend has been out of state since this started and needs to come back next month.
Whats the situation like on flights and airports?
yes, but are you willing to live with stuff like passive Bluetooth contact tracing as a Permanent Thing?
...because cosmiccoffee9 sure don´t love it.
imagine a world where your job could, as part of a zero tolerance policy for intoxication at work, determine if you have been near your local liquor store or ¨drug neighborhood¨ within a certain period, and fire you.
same way 9/11 led to getting microwaved and butt-searched in airports, weird **** could come out of COVID-19.
As a permanent thing? No. As a temporary measure until we get a vaccine or at least until medical professionals better understand what's the best protocol for covid treatment. Yes
This is what I find the most hilarious - China is stuck on showing the rest of the world how they do things is working for them & that it is the best way to run a country. While other countries condemns China for almost everything they do....but later do something really similar.
Curious: do you have any criticisms of how the CCP runs the Mainland?
Really want to know. No hate or whatever.
Serious question.
Well in the case that you've not yet contracted covid I'm sure they can come up with a different certificate for that.Things that are not acceptable:
- Immunity certificate for a job application. So if I never had COVID and not yet immune, my chances of employment are reduced? that creates an incentive for people to go and get sick
yeah, of course I do. I never said/implied I didn't lol.
Government Cheese is Back Baby!!!
I'm getting concerned about the lack of shutdown updates from NYC. We're under a week away from the May 15 shutdown order with no extension. Making me feel that Cuomo quickly shifted his focus to the economy with unemployment so high
I hear you about the vaccine. I wouldn't want people who are healthy but haven't yet contracted covid to be penalized for not having an immunity card. I would want a different set of protocols for that.See what you’re saying, but vaccine is what 6/12/18/24/? months out. And regarding the “trusting medical professionals” part, we’ve have numerous posts of actual medical professions where people immediately take a shot because the view didn’t fit personal beliefs.
Don’t have a good reasonable answer for you.
Good discussion.
