[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am vaccinated and boostered and I wear a mask but something about a vaccine passport, showing proof,  doesn’t sit well with me.  How will it be enforced? Is my passport going to be scanned at businesses? Will this information be reported back to a government entity? Is it just theater?[/quote]

This.  And it's just another way to hurt businesses.  Let them police their own business the way they want.[/quote]

Elrich thinks this won’t hurt businesses because a vaccinated person won’t leave MoCo to shop elsewhere.  He is SO wrong.

I am so against this.  I will absolutely drive up to Frederick for restaurants/bars.  Already, they have no mask mandate.  I’m vaccinated, but he shouldn’t underestimate how much people will dislike this kind of crazy BS.  [/quote]

Actually I know a lot of people myself included who think the opposite. We've stopped going to Frederick stores and restaurants because barely anyone in these establishments, including workers wear masks. I was just at Weis and Home Goods at Mt. Airy 3 weeks ago and I was seriously uncomfortable.[/quote]
Well, that’s just weird.  Are you vaccinated?  Did you wear a mask?

Why do you need to control what everyone else is doing?  Even if every other person in that Home Goods had Covid, you are covered because you are masked and vaccinated.

You can’t control what other people do.  You can only control your own behavior and how you react.[/quote]

You are correct about being in control. As I've said, I decided to no longer patronize these establishments and others that clearly lack concern about this virus. There's also something very off-putting about their customers as they walk around indoors maskless without a care in the world. I'm only 15 minutes away from Frederick but it feels like thousands of miles away when I'm there.[/quote]

How do you determine who is adequately ‘concerned’ about the virus?

I mean, I’m vaccinated, so I’m pretty comfortable being unmasked.  I’m concerned about the virus but not terrified.

You are judging others for making a different risk-assessment than you.  You are assuming that because I’m not masked, I’m not concerned.  That’s incorrect.  I wear a mask religiously at work and want a break from it at other times.

Most of us are concerned.  Some of us never leave the house.  Some of us are flying to Costa Rica.  The people not wearing masks at Home Goods have just made a different risk assessment than you.  [/quote]
