[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are they doing this? The vax mandate was great[/quote]

Because it sucks.  And people who are vaccinated are going out of their way to eat in Virginia because they don’t like the mandates.  Lots of lost business and headaches for the restaurant owners.  [/quote]

I can't have been the only person who ate indoors in DC for the first time a couple of weeks ago BECAUSE of the vax mandate, and will now not do so.[/quote]

That doesn’t even make any sense!

If you are worried about catching Covid from eating indoors, it doesn’t make a difference if there is a vax passport or not.  You can catch COVID from someone who is vaccinated.  Having a vax passport does not ensure anyone’s safety.  [/quote]

It doesn't ensure your safety, but it does make a difference.  It might not eliminate all risk, but vaccines do reduce transmission and infection.  People seem to think that either a measure is 100 percent effective or it's useless, but that's not how risk works in real life.

And honestly, if you ARE vaccinated and you refuse to eat in DC because of the mandates, I don't know what to tell you.  Like, you are CHOOSING to hurt local businesses and then complaining about the harm to local businesses?[/quote]
