As of September 16, 2021, Florida is going after businesses that don’t abide by the state’s ban on vaccine passports by slapping them with $5,000 fines.
State legislators passed a law earlier this year banning businesses, government and schools from issuing vaccine mandates. In April 2021 Florida Gov. Ron Desantis also signed an executive order banning businesses from ordering mandatory vaccinations. The Florida Department of Health is charged with enforcing the law, which applies to schools as well as businesses.
According to the report, violators will receive a notice of their infraction along with a timeframe to appeal the fines. Once finalized, there is a 30-day window to pay the fine.
