Not a surprise is it really

Does it surprise anyone that people who don't care about protecting other people also have no morals?

‘Moderna’ misspelled on Illinois visitor’s alleged fake vaccination card

The special agent found the woman’s Facebook profile and determined that Mrozak had a distinctive tattoo on her left hip. On Thursday, he met with other special agents with the Quarantine Compliance Check (QCC) Team to discuss her case. The team believed she would return home via Southwest Airlines and not American Airlines (as she listed) due to the fact that majority of the flights are purchased as round-trip tickets to reduce the cost.

Chloe Mrozak, 24, was released from OCCC after making a tearful plea to the judge.

“Ms. Morzak, if the court releases you are you gonna comply and make appearance?” the judge asked her. “I promise, I promise, whatever it takes. I’m not a bad person,” she replied.

She’ll need to appear for a virtual hearing on Sept. 22.

Yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath on her returning, but I would laugh my a$$ off if they extradited her for a no show.

By one stretch, yes, that makes a lot of sense. But by another stretch, there are some people who can't take it for medical reasons or won't take it for (possibly taboo here on TUG) reasons. I'm not defending or condoning their actions. I'm just saying there are reasons why people are "spending the time, energy and MONEY to get a fake card" instead of "just [getting] the vaccine".

Sorry, not buying that. Yes, there are reasons, valid, or otherwise, that people aren't getting the vaccine. So, live with the consequences. Or seek out a legal alternative. Valid medical reason. Valid Covid test. They don't have to go the possibly expensive, illegal route.

Save your time and effort. Several attempts have been made to explain this is not about the money for those that choose to do this and it being illegal, well, that's nothing more than an inconvenient side note.

A scammer just posted a fake card offer on TUG, but it was deleted/banned before it went live.

Just to clarify, are these people saying that the vaccinations "violate their 'personal freedom' and restricts their 'liberty'" or that the requirement to get vaccinated and the vaccine card does so? There's a big difference.

Maui seems to be the destination for no vaccine, no test, no lodging. Several other travel quarantine violations occurred on Maui in August, among them an incident that resulted in a charge of assaulting a law enforcement officer.
