We are being told by management that it's "illegal" to ask clients (or staff) if they've been vaccinated, let alone ask for proof. I don't know if they're referring to HIPAA or some other privacy law. If that's not true, how do I prove it to them? ------------------------------ ...
What are requirements for asking about a person's COVID vaccination status? I've had clients become upset when I ask them if they are COVID vaccinated or not. If we are to allow vaccinated individuals into our offices, then we need to know their vaccine ...
As far as you know, when will the review of the curbside intake guidelines take place? Management teams at some veterinary hospitals are pushing to relax those guidelines. Is it legal or prudent to act independently on this issue without the NYS government ...
Great, thank you!

As of 8 am tomorrow, Tuesday March 23, all New Yorkers over age 50 become eligible for the vaccine. It's very disappointing to see the state's decision to ignore the CDC's placing of veterinarians in the 1b category/essential workers back in January 2021. ...
Hi Tim, Any idea when we might hear about eligibility for veterinarians and staff? Thanks ------------------------------ Anne Shakespeare Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital Ithaca NY 607-391-7055 ------------------------------
Thank you! Ironically, with the expansion of covid vaccine eligibility to include comorbidities, my two veterinary colleagues and I now qualify because all three of us have asthma, BUT there are no vaccines available! The seemingly neverending saga ...
I would like to know the answer to this as well, I know of other veterinarians who are clicking through to get an appointment under the "other" health worker category. I figured they would be turned back at the vaccination site, since supposedly you have ...
