In an effort to end the COVID19 pandemic many governments imposed vaccine mandates on people who wish to enter private businesses. Politicians who supported the mandates argued that it would stop the spread of CV19 and encourage people to get vaccinated against it. Opponents argue that vaccination status is private health information and people should not be forced to share it. Proponents argue that unvaccinated individuals are responsible for spreading CV19 and prolonging the pandemic.

If it changes the products effect yes
@93RQL4H2yrs2Y
As a private business, I don't see why not when it's in regards to a safety concern.
@7J7L92W2yrs2Y
No, but they are allowed to ask customers to leave if they don't show vaccination or wear a mask
@92JXK3J2yrs2Y
Yes, if it is during a pandemic or if it is a small business and/or if it employs a number of disabled and sickly people.
@8Y6ZVGL2yrs2Y
No, unless they refuse to wear a mask when a business requires one to do; it depends on the rules and rights of the owner and their business.
@93G2RP72yrs2Y
They have the right to ask as the customer has a right not to disclose medical information
@8VD4SST2yrs2Y
Yes, they should have the right to ask, but customers shouldn't be forced to tell them
@89MRPCP2yrs2Y
Every business should be state owned
@9334YP32yrs2Y
Only if they do not receive any kind of government funding or benefits, and only if it would be equally legal for them to turn away vaccinated customers as unvaccinated ones.
@34477B52yrs2Y
Yes, but only during a time of national pandemic spread.
@4XD28G72yrs2Y
No, that is private information and vaccines aren't proven to be 100% effective for preventing the spread of disease. Easier and safer to enforce masks upon entry.
@92NVQ272yrs2Y
It's freedom and they should ask for health safety.
@8XD6BY62yrs2Y
Yes, that is the private business’s freedom of speech and private property rights
@3HNRB332yrs2Y
No, but I do think that private businesses should have a right to require masks and other safety and health practices for their and their employees protection.
@5DMLY822yrs2Y
Yes, but they shouldn't ask
@vacheesehead2yrs2Y
Yes, as all private businesses should have the right to do so in the case of a public health concern.
@7FNDWLM2yrs2Y
Yes, but they are not allowed to deny access to the business based on vaccination status.
@6LV5ZML2yrs2Y
No, an individual's health information should remain private; but, businesses should be able to request customers to wear a mask in order to enter their place of business, and deny entry to those who refuse to comply. "No shoes, no shirt, no mask, no service."
@6LV5ZML2yrs2Y
No, but they should be able to request customers to wear a mask in order to enter their place of business.
Deleted2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as the government doesn't enforce it
@4M78YV62yrs2Y
Yes. However, I will not patron these businesses if they decided to do so
@83Y58Z22yrs2Y
yes, private businesses should have the right to conduct business so long as they are not in violation of the 14th amendment.
@85QL69F2yrs2Y
Yes, but the customer has a right to remain silent
@8TQB57G2yrs2Y
Yes, but I won't patronize businesses that make requirements of my vaccination status
@8F8D9G32yrs2Y
Vaccination status is a matter of private health record and is protected by the doctor-patient relationship.
@76DJFF82yrs2Y
Yes, but also accept negative results
@Graham4GA2yrs2Y
Yes, but I don't think they should.
@65FRMVL2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as customers and hiring candidates have the ability to disclose any health-related reasons for not being vaccinated.
@3BCN8LS2yrs2Y
They may ask, customer has right to refuse to answer.
@8Z65MKR2yrs2Y
depends on the bussiness
@8VHBC3L2yrs2Y
Yes, businesses have the right to refuse service.
@8YLB9QX2yrs2Y
Yes, private businesses have the right to conduct their business however they see fit.
@8VC2Q882yrs2Y
Yes, businesses have the right to refuse service for any reason.
@8YWFNCG2yrs2Y
Yes, but customers should also have the right to refuse to answer.
@8VC7WDN2yrs2Y
No, and they should be banned from firing employees based on vaccination status!
@646YDRS2yrs2Y
No, and it is madness that it has gotten to this point
