New OHA guidance: Businesses must review proof of vaccination to drop mask, distance requirements
The Oregon Health Authority released updated guidance Tuesday about mask and physical distancing requirements for individuals fully vaccinated against COVID-19, saying businesses and churches "must require visitors to show proof of vaccination" -- and review it -- if they want to drop mask and distancing requirements.
Under the updated guidance, OHA said people who are fully vaccinated will no longer be required to wear a mask indoors, in most public settings where vaccination status is checked. In public settings where vaccination status is not checked, masks will still be required.
Statewide Reopening Guidance — Masks, Face Coverings, Face Shields

I live in Oregon. I went to Costco this morning. The majority of customers were without facemasks and all they were interested at the door was to see my Costco membership card. Same at Walmart. I think Oregonians (at least in my part of the state) are ignoring our governors ridiculous edict.

No that would fall under HIPAA discrimination. It is an overall illegal move.
I wonder if there are any lawsuits or legal action where some of these rules have been challenged under HIPAA? I would expect them to be, but I have not heard of any.

So the bottom line is to still wear mask at all times. They may have implemented this for the safety of those not yet vaccinated. Though, the question is, what if they intend not be vaccinated at all xp

Wash your hands, wear a mask & social distance.

My wife is on chemotherapy... will be for the rest of her life. The drugs cancel out the vaccine, so why get it? And most cancer patients know this already.

After the government finishes with the 12 yo’s then they will probably find an excuse to give it to our pets, of course with Fauci’s stamp of approval. Gotta sell those vax’s!

In Britain, there are currently around 950 people in hospital with Covid.
Of those, 90+% are those who have declined vaccinations.
Just saying.

In my neighborhood, we are all still masked. None of us are vaccinated. It is different in the other neighborhoods where almost everyone is vaccinated. The zipcodes most affected by the virus are also the zipcodes that haven't had access to the vaccine. People are dying here and will continue to die. We wear our masks to save as many as we can.

Where I live, the poor and brown wear masks, and the wealthy and the whites do not. I am white, but I am poor. These people are my neighbors for as long as God keeps me here. I wear my mask. Even if it is just a token of my solidarity with my fallen siblings.

So what does that prove? Did they take the proper precautions? Or were they flaunting fate by not distancing, not wearing masks, not caring about their lives... ya know, sch#CIS like Donny Trump... but he and all his entourage got antibodies that cured the virus. Now is that available to you as a normal world citizen.... or is it the vaccine that has proven to make people sick (killing some) the way to go? Also, do you have to sign a waiver saying that .... oh you know what I mean.

see I’m trying to understand what is going on in different countries.

This is just one of the many reasons the eastern counties of OR have voted to leave OR and join ID.
