Wait. So, if the airlines require negative test results for all crew and passengers to fly, then that pretty much means they should not be throwing people off flights for mask "violations," as we've seen happen the past few months. People who test negative should not be punished for not wearing masks every second. If you disagree, then why even require a f-king test? It accomplishes nothing.
What good is having a test if you still have to wear a mask as if you're contagious? Forcing mask use AND testing is an admission that the tests are worthless.
So ridiculous.
Based on my daughters travels back and forth from Texas over the holidays, the airline doesn’t require the test results. The State your entering does or may.
That’s why people can land here without having yet received their results.
The airline requires the mask.
And may soon require your vaccination card or whatever that funny looking semi-upc looking thing is on a smartphone.
And the State already requires numerous vaccinations for kids entering schools, whether private or public.
“ Immunizations:
Immunizations required for school attendance:
DTaP/DTP/Td (diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis)
Polio
MMR (measles, mumps, rubella)
Hepatitis B
Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b) (for preschool attendance)
Varicella (chickenpox)
All immunizations must meet minimum age and interval requirements between vaccine doses.“

But this is going way too far.
Restricted jobs, travel, public place access, etc.
what, homeless can’t live on the street or in parks without smartphone proof of vaccination ?
And the whole smartphone thing makes it even more fawked up.
