I'm about to make a killing selling those stupid ass cards outside Neyland.

Mine is literally my name, written by a smoking hot nurse with a blue pen, and then a sticker. That's it. No signatures. No stamps. You could pump those things out as fast as someone could tell you their name and you write that bitch down.

This stuff is ripe for some attorneys to get a hold of this when an employee refuses and gets fired and files a wrongful termination lawsuit.

Eh it's a state by state thing, I doubt there are many laws on the books prohibiting vaccine mandates. I doubt Walmart would have made it a requirement without extensive legal research on whether or not they'd be sued.

It's especially interesting to me because liberal states are the ones who have historically protected individuals against big corporations and have a lot of laws in place that could potentially be applied to vaccine mandates, but they're so pro vaccine that they will have to back track on a lot of those stances to defend an employer's right to require a vaccine. And vice versa in red states.

It's a complete farse. Are you telling me they have the resources to verify tens of thousands of proofs of vaccines over the course of an hour or two? To actually verify for that many people would take the entire day unless they have unlimited free labor.

You're in luck. I've got a printer and I'll give you a card with a name on it that looks legit enough to fool a poorly trained ticket guy. $20.

They'll literally look at your vaccine card or negative test. This is happening at plenty of indoor spaces. Some will cheat, yes. Still a deterrent as most folks probably aren't so desperate as to start forging false documents overnight...I would guess lol.

They didn't ban business or schools from mandating vaccine passports or did they? I thought I read that they banned the government from mandating them or requiring business to mandate them.

Here's the bill summary. Sounds to me like it only applies to government entities. So, UT. But I guess Vandy could still do it and other private enterprises could.

"Public Health - As enacted, removes authority from county boards of health in relation to enforcement and adoption of rules and regulations and instead makes the board advisory to the county mayor for such purposes; defines quarantine for purposes of the present law provisions governing quarantine; prohibits state or local governmental official, entity, department, or agency requiring physical documentation or digital storage of protected health information related to an individual's immunization or vaccination against COVID-19 as a condition of entering upon the premises of a state or local government entity, or utilizing services provided by a state or local government entity. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 5; Title 8; Title 56; Title 63; Title 68 and Title 71."

What is ENT? Sounds like possibly sleep apnea if snoring so loud it wakes your neighbors.

Ear, Nose, and Throat. I had a sleep study done about 5 or 6 years ago and they said I did not have it. It has been getting progressively worse though.

I’m not sure this is accurate. HIPAA restricts medical professionals from disclosing your health information without your consent. There are no medical professionals in this equation.

Since when can a company or facility ban someone from entry unless they disclose their medical history. What would stop a company from demanding to see proof that you don't have HIV/AIDS, Hepatitus, or other illnesses. It is a slippery slope but people are willing to hand over their freedoms because..... why? Covid? Sorry. You can't have my freedom by me handing it to you. You will have to come and take it. That won't go well for at least one of us.

Not directed at you. Just in general. Didn't want to start a scrum with you over my choice of words.

So it seems to me that there's nothing UT can do. This prohibits a government entity from requiring papers. Therefore, if someone shows up to UT and they ask for papers, one can produce this law, and there's nothing they can do. If they still require papers, they are in violation of the law.

Wouldn’t the bet be canceled by the book if games are canceled?

Most conferences are moving to forfeits if your team can't play due to COVID, as opposed to outright cancellations. But yes, if games were cancelled it would probably null the bets, unless otherwise indicated.
