South Carolina Republicans are introducing a bill that would make it a criminal offense to ask anyone about their Covid vaccination status. H. 4848, the bill under consideration, was introduced on January 20.
âAny employee, officer, agent, or other representative of a public, nonprofit, or private entity who inquires about the COVID-19 vaccination status of any student, employee, member, or anyone else seeking admission on the entityâs premises is guilty of a misdemeanor,â the text of the bill states.
Demanding that someone provide their Covid vaccination status would be punishable by a fine of up to $14,000 fine or up to a year in jail, or both.
