Is someone justified in harassing someone to tell them if they got vaccinated or not?

Say you got vaccinated and choose not to stand in the middle of the street to tell the world. Yet friend or coworker keeps nagging you to tell them if you did or not

If I told you I could eat a horse, will you be afraid I will literally eat a horse? Of course not. Anyone can, but I wouldn't know how and where to get a horse. Me think you think way too much into things. Are you too familiar with 911, a Karen perhaps.

Oh...I get it...you are trying to be clever...

I speculate that first private businesses will mandate vaccines.  Many LTCs and hospitals are private businesses.  The mandates will be piecemeal...and probably not very organized, but eventually, one way or the other...most folks will be vaccinated...that is if they value their jobs.  It is legal for businesses to set their own rules.  It's too bad people don't just cooperate and do vaccinations voluntarily, but I guess that would just be too much to expect of some people. 

Fit testing is mandatory, but many nurses don't really take it seriously especially after 12hrs shift. The only time I believe it was when my hospital used that digital sensor then you couldn't say "yeah yeah it fits, I don't taste that saccharine". Guess there is no way out of getting out of a mandated vaccine unless you conveniently scheduled a vacation at the time or get a doctor excuse.

You sound like you want to "get out of" getting the vaccine.

Trying?!?! I think you are trying too hard to be clever, a bit too analytical. Perhaps that is the reason for your user name. I rather enjoy my measured flights of fancy. I'm a creative person.

That is your assumption, because I mentioned multiple times that I already got it. In fact I posted my experience in the "what was your experience thread" way back in January/Febuary. See, you only hear your analysis (opinion) and block out everything else.

So you are just playing devil's advocate in dangerous times...that seems like a good idea to you...OK

Me think some people may feel it will be justified to drag people out on the streets to give them the shot, or maybe shrug their shoulders if that would be implemented.

And sometimes people justify the methods. Same difference

Honestly, do you really think there is not a small segment of the population that does not feel that it would be justified to force people to get the vaccine? The history of the human race proves that we can do just that, after slavery, force sterilization, the holocaust, and you think force vaccination is a impossible wild speculation?

That small segment of society that might harbor such tendencies is not in control of the federal government.  I am unaware of any state leadership that might have membership in that small group that you mention, but there very certainly are some authoritarian leaning leaders in state politics. 

Are you trying to generate serious discussion about serious threat? Because the serious threat is people not vaccinating not the possibility of forced vaccination.

No ? Sherlock. That is why I said "feel", thank God we are more civilized now. No wait, Jan 6th. Never mind.

You know I had a interesting discussion with my roommate, on why I wouldn't want to live on a space station. No offense, but glad you weren't there.  I enjoy our banter, to me is fun and good form of exercise.

You've now compared getting vaccinated against a pandemic virus, which is the by far the best way we know of to get past the pandemic and protect others in the society that we're all a part of, to being stoned to death, slavery, forced sterilization, and the holocaust.  Holy ***.
