Berkeley MANDATES AB 455 and AB 1102

Yes, AB 455 and AB 1102 were put on “suspense” by their new author, that does not mean it is dead.  The people of Berkeley will now live under the fascist guidance of this measure meant to terrorize the public and isolate people from society.

Starting Friday in Berkeley, patrons of restaurants, gyms and large indoor events will need to show proof that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

A health order issued Wednesday by Berkeley’s health officer also requires, starting Oct. 15, that employees of those businesses and other specified facilities are vaccinated or tested weekly for the coronavirus.

The order covers settings where people remove a face mask to eat or drink or breathe more intensely to work out, in addition to large events where people crowd together in groups of 1,000 or more.

Starting Sept. 10, those establishments must require patrons to show proof of full vaccination and a photo ID, according to the order from Berkeley Health Officer Dr. Lisa Hernandez.

Lie in Nazi Germany—or the Taliban Afghanistan, the people of Berkeley will have to show their papers.  Freedom?  Not in Berkeley.

Berkeley adds vaccination verification rules

Will apply to restaurants, gyms, large gatherings

BERKELEY — Starting Friday in Berkeley, patrons of restaurants, gyms and large indoor events will need to show proof that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

A health order issued Wednesday by Berkeley’s health officer also requires, starting Oct. 15, that employees of those businesses and other specified facilities are vaccinated or tested weekly for the coronavirus.

The order covers settings where people remove a face mask to eat or drink or breathe more intensely to work out, in addition to large events where people crowd together in groups of 1,000 or more.

Starting Sept. 10, those establishments must require patrons to show proof of full vaccination and a photo ID, according to the order from Berkeley Health Officer Dr. Lisa Hernandez.

The businesses and venues subject to the order must check all patrons who are at least 12 years old, to make sure they have been fully vaccinated. That is 14 days after the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccine or 14 days after the second shot of the two-dose Moderna or Pfizer vaccines.

By Oct. 15, sites where employees must be vaccinated or tested weekly include indoor businesses such as restaurants and gyms, but also a number of other facilities, including adult care facilities, adult day programs, dental offices, pharmacies and public and private childcare sites.

All employees, including contractors, volunteers, custodians, maintenance and other workers who enter the businesses, are covered by the order.

Workers who are not vaccinated because of a religious belief must provide a signed letter under penalty of perjury, under the order. Employees with a medical condition must provide a letter signed by a licensed medical provider. The employee, however, would also have to provide negative test results on a weekly basis.

For large indoor events where tickets were sold before Sept. 3, patrons must show negative COVID test results received in the previous 72 hours. Starting Oct. 15, such events will solely require proof of vaccination.
