Welcome to CNN 10. I'm Carl Azuz and the
controversial issue of vaccine passports
is our first subject this friday
what are they vaccine passports are a
form of proof that someone has received
a coronavirus vaccine they could be
digital on a phone or issued through a
paper certificate if they become a
requirement
people may need to show vaccine
passports to get into concerts
ball games businesses and other
countries the first nation in the world
to introduce these was
china it did that earlier this year
people there use a qr code on their
phones to prove they've been vaccinated
and show their coronavirus test results
in history
the european union is working on a
certificate that would show people have
been vaccinated
or fully recovered from covid19 or
recently tested negative for the virus
in order for them to travel across the
27 eu member countries
in the united states the biden
administration says it does not support
vaccine passports and that the federal
government will not require every
american to carry one
but different states have different
approaches new york for instance
recently became the first state to
launch vaccine passports
florida on the other hand recently
became the first state to ban them
and while supporters say they're
necessary for american safety
opponents say they infringe on americans
freedom
customers are returning and with them
talk of so-called vaccine passports
owner rocco mengele has been vaccinated
and would like others to do the same
but he's not in favor of requiring it at
his restaurants for
staff and customers for him it's about
freedom of choice requiring people to
have a vaccination card
to come into the restaurant or a
vaccination app or a passport
i think it infringes on their rights
that tracks with florida governor ron
desantis view
it's part of why he issued an executive
order banning vaccine passports in the
state of florida
desantis has dismissed vaccine passports
in the same way he did
many other measures during the pandemic
like mass mandates and lockdowns
all in the name of protecting rights and
in this case
privacy do you think you'd get more
business or see more business if a
vaccine was required here
i think quite the opposite if we
required it
that would be a perception of that we're
trying to
govern them desantis argues that vaccine
passports reduce
individual freedom and would create two
classes of citizens based on vaccination
according to the executive order
businesses here in florida are
prohibited from requiring customers to
provide documentation
certifying a covit 19 vaccination or
post-transmission recovery
in order to gain access to that business
desantis's order puts him at odds with
those who believe they're included in
the orderand are planning for or at least
considering requiring a vaccine passport
like the stras center for the performing
arts in tampa
it's really critical to our reopening
and eventually to get us
to 100 capacity ceo
judy leacy says she's surprised by and
disappointed with the governor's
decision
if you think about mass gathering places
like theaters and stadiums
and arenas we're sitting right next to
each other
so it becomes really important to have
a vaccine program as an option for our
for our guests
and for our artists at nova southeastern
university in fort lauderdale
proof of covid19 vaccination was going
to be mandatory for staff
and students come the fall semester but
when i alerted the university ceo to the
governor's executive order
banning vaccine passports i will change
whatever
is necessary to comply with the law and
to the
governor's executive order back at
rocco's tacos rocco mangel says he
doesn't think a vaccine passport
would make his restaurant any safer than
it already is
people make a choice and people need to
make
hopefully a choice that they're not
going to put other people at risk
ten-second trivia what was invented in
1812 by american scientist dr james
meese ketchup toothpaste tin can or
atlantic cable
dr meese came up with the first known
recipe for tomato based ketchup
might seem like a random topic to top
our next segment but
some of the ripple effects of the
coronavirus era are pretty random
who would have predicted a toilet paper
shortage a bicycle shortage a computer
chipshortage and now a catch-up packet
shortagerestaurants and consumers can still find
these online but they're getting harder
and harder to come by
every day across the country restaurants
are looking for customers in the midst
ofcovid and at the blake street tavern in
denver chris fusilla
is also looking for ketchup you know
my chef came up to me one day and said
chris i got a bad problem here i hate to
tell you this but we're out of hinds i
go wait a minute what are you talking
about
the ketchup shortage began with new
health guidelines last year discouraging
traditional
dining room service and pushing drive
throughdelivery takeout and curbside pickup
in response outwent the big bottles and
in came those cute little packs
perfect for takeout soon demand was
outpacing supply so badly
the wall street journal says the seafood
chain long john silvers
spent an extra half million dollars
dealing with the shortage
that's a lot of plans some of the
restaurants we talked to got these
five gallon tubs of ketchup you know
bulk ketchup
and they filled little souffle cups with
them
they've looked at like alternate
dispensers um
and again this takes time and money to
do heinz which makes more ketchup than
anybody
else says this month it will launch a 25
increase in production totaling 12
billion ketchup packets a year liftoff
end to end that's almost enough to go to
the moon and
back and that's appropriate since yeah
astronauts have ketchup in space
still with summer cookouts camping trips
and
whatever this is coming around condiment
connoisseurs could be squeezed for a
while
