CPR, the Y, and HIPPA

The American Red Cross came out with new Covid-19 guidelines for teaching CPR just recently.  Yesterday was my first class under them.  According to the Red Cross, if everyone in the class has been vaccinated for Covid, face masks are not required.  I checked with the Y.  If everyone in the class has been vaccinated, face masks are not required.

So as people came into class yesterday, I simply asked if they had been vaccinated.  Nobody gave my question a second thought except Gabe.  

"Isn't that against HIPPA to ask?"

"I don't know.  But what I do know is if one person comes into this room unvaccinated, we will ALL be wearing our facemasks."

No more questions asked.
