Florida Gov. DeSantis rolls out an executive order aimed at curtailing the use of “vaccine passports,” or documentation to show proof of vaccination.

In the order, DeSantis said that vaccination records are private information, “which should not be shared by mandate,” and that “vaccine passports reduce individual freedom and will harm patient privacy.”

Taking effect immediately, it also bans businesses from requiring customers to provide documentation verifying a Covid-19 vaccination or post-transmission recovery in order to gain access or service from the business. The order comes after DeSantis announced on Monday that he would take steps to forbid “vaccine passports” and such documentation. That same day, more Floridians became eligible for vaccination.

“It’s completely unacceptable for either the government or the private sector to impose upon you the requirement that you show proof of vaccine to just simply participate in normal society,” he said. As of this week, Florida has over 2 million confirmed cases of the coronavirus, with around 34,000 deaths, according to

Saint COVID. GovRonDeSantis Florida's Patron Saint of COVID will do his BEST to continue the endeavor.

Such a goon.

Chief moron in waiting. Brace for impact.

Umm do anyone else think that he and his fellow republicans haven't got their vaccinations?

An evil man.....

This man is a real monster!

I’m not entirely against this Republican unicorn executive order. I’m not with the papers-please movement restrictions. But given the fact that so many were throwing complete hissy-fits over masking up, what do you do?

Republicans appear to have a lower IQ when it comes to public health. Unfortunately that ignorance has cost the US 550K deaths.

Working hard to be dumbest.

Cos he ain't got one.

One of the few politicians left that are committed to limiting government power over the lives of the American people. Thank you

Proof of vaccination to do normal life things is communist.

Huh wise move. Cruise industry trying to convince the cdc to allows Cruises to start from Florida. The other option is the ships start from an island outside of the US. This could seal the cdc's options.

Once an asshole always an asshole

Thank yooouuuuyyyu DeSantis !!!!!!!

What a gosh-darn rcist move! How will people get into their polling locations to vote if they don't have their vaccine passports to prove they are vaccinated & Covid-free?

And the point of that is... better use of time old man.

And why are you not challenging his unwillingness to adjust science or medicine? I’m tired of you playing out like this without asking hard questions

What a jerk -Florida deserves better !!

Is DeSantis crossed eyed? Asking for a friend,

So Desantis thinks he can tell private businesses what to do?

He is so stupied, that's all I can say

BoycottFlorida

No concert venues should allow anyone in if the don't have vaccine passport.

I am not sure why politicians can be so stupid of not following science.

He is truly an abhorrent human being. It’s hard to tell if he’s sick or sadistic.

Deathsantis does not get to tell the private sector how to run their business. No shoes, no shirt, no vaccination card or negative COVID19 test no entry. .GovRonDeSantis

DeSantis. Working hard every day to make American worse.

Why?!

well those people in FLA might find out they cannot go to other states or countries without a immunity passport.

Umm...so if the CDC mandates vaccines for all crew and passengers for cruising, then what?

Hey, if a bakery can deny making people a cake based on religious beliefs, then an establishment can deny service based on scientific beliefs.

Then why the fuck is the government telling private bussniess what to do ?

What about yellow fever vaccine documentation when you travel to or through countries with yellow fever? Should those be banned also Why don’t we just keep spreading this virus then...

Here here... good job Florida! At the end of the day, the federal government, doesn't matter who is in charge, is absolutely not going to push any self promoting agendas on us... Especially the current Biden/kamala administrative usurpers....

To soon to call him 47 ?

We now have to have a star on our ID when traveling to show we are 'real' citizens. But everyone loses their minds over having to show a vaccine record? 🤦🏼

Why? Silly man

I get it, you really are an Anti-Liberal. Do you have an actual plan so we know who is safe to get on a cruise ship again without turning them into the same floating death traps that we saw last March? I will not be going into any theaters/bars/clubs/cruise ships until then.

The best governor in the US!

🤦‍♀️

so GOP demands ID to vote - but wants no ID for ANYTHING else got it

It's sad he even has to do this in america.

Governor DeStupid is at it again.

I'm fully vaccinated & I won't do business with companies or states that aren't. When I call to make an appt I ask if staff is vaccinated; if the answer is 'no' I add them to my 'NO' list. I used to spend 2 months each year in Orlando but won't be back with this Governor.

Because ignorance is his brand.

Clueless conspiracy nut selling vaccinations to the highest donor now pandering to the lowest possible political clan

Does he ever STFU?
