COVID vaccination records are currently spotty and not always available. Are you suggesting we turn people away unless we can conclusively prove their vaccination status? Anyone who got vaccinated in a state (or country) without readily accessible records gets turned away? The whole concept is infeasible.


view as:

People who have non-COVID life-threatening emergencies are already being turned away because the beds are already full.

Ultimately this is part and parcel of our privatized medical system where there were way more hospital beds per capita in the 70s/80s than today while costs have gone through the roof.


Not turn them away immediately. They should be given a grace period to get their docs in order. Say a few days. Then if they still do not have verifiable evidence, yes they would be prioritized lower.
