Jay Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Hello, Is anyone already making badge ribbons with the text "Vaccinated"? If not I thought I might. Can anyone recommend a printer that makes them reasonably? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone recommend a printer that makes them reasonably? That's a thought. NOt sure about HIPPA laws…..but I suppose if it's voluntary. " VACCINATED " Seems rather generic, frex: there are more things to be vaccinated against (german measles, tetanus, flu….) other than the particular CoronaVirus that first attacked humans in Wuhan. VACCINATED could refer to anything. Maybe there is a more fun lighthearted? way to say it? House Moderna House Pfizer House Oxford House Jannsen …those are the four main vaccines, it's been like being sorted into school houses. Only, That would be four ribbons… Edited May 12, 2021 by TGP 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inarah Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) I'm pretty sure it means the obvious thing, and like all the ribbons it would be for fun only and completely voluntary. Show your card, get a ribbon. If you can't/won't/don't want to play the ribbon game, you're free to walk away. There are plenty of other ribbons to collect.

Sylverthorne Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I'm guessing a purple ribbon with a needle on it is probably going to offend somebody, or I'd suggest that. I admit, if it was up to me, 'I got my shots!' would probably figure large, but... it's been suggested a few times that my sense of humour needs work. ;p But the ribbon thing has always been an opt-in game; both for handing out and collecting; as Inarah rightly points out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corporea Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Our local health department gave us all buttons to wear saying "I got my covid-19 vaccine." I plan to wear mine to Reapercon, and am happy to talk data and scope out the cdc website with anyone who wants! (even though I'm on 'vacation!') Oddly, I have not had the slightest desire to buy microsoft products... chocolate maybe... hmmmn...

alchemist Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 If anyone is interested, the Dork Tower store is offering this in a variety of formats -- sticker, pin, button, patch, t-shirt, etc. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aard_Rinn Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 "SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!" I like the House one myself. Have each of them framed by two needles, except JnJ, who get one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dicey Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I think this idea is cute. Regarding HIPAA, you can disclose whatever of your own personal medical information you wish to do so. There is no rule that you can't talk about your own health or medical treatments. What is illegal is for OTHER people, like your doctor or insurance company, to discuss your medical information without permission. This law specifically applies to health-related entities, though. Your friend can talk about your private medical information if they know it and not get into any trouble. And there's nothing prohibiting individuals or businesses from asking you questions, and you have a choice whether or not to answer. But none of that falls under HIPAA. Only health-related entities and only without your permission. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
