[blindLaw] Justice Department Secures Agreement with Hy-Vee Supermarket Chain to Make Online COVID-19 Vaccine Registration Accessible for People with Disabilities - Department of Justice - December 1, 2021

"Individuals with disabilities must be able to get potentially lifesaving
healthcare like COVID-19 vaccines on equal terms, without sacrificing their
privacy or independence," said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of
the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division.

Several problems with this quote. First, the clot shot, or stroke poke if
you prefer, is not a vaccine. It is a gene modification therapy, utilizing a
product that has never before been used on humans. Second it is not
"potentially life saving", as this Frankenscience poison will kill more
people than it ever saves in the end. It has already killed more 16 to 30
year olds than were killed by Fauci's NIAID funded biological weapon known
as SARS Covi 2.

I recommend that those not jabbed spend time doing serious investigation on
the fraud being perpetrated upon the world before spending any time figuring
out how they can get their Frankenshot.

Finally, where is Clark's concern for my privacy and independence when it
comes to her boss' mandate that I take a Frankenshot that I know is harmful
and deadly and which I have no intentions of taking?

Just my 2 cents worth.

Justice Department Secures Agreement with Hy-Vee Supermarket Chain to Make
Online COVID-19 Vaccine Registration Accessible for People with Disabilities
Office of Public Affairs Department of Justice December 1, 2021

The Justice Department today announced that it has secured a settlement
agreement with Hy-Vee Inc. that will help people with disabilities get
information about COVID-19 vaccinations and book their vaccination
appointments online. The Hy-Vee supermarket chain has more than 280 stores
in Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota and
Wisconsin. Today's resolution is the department's second agreement on this
critical issue, following a November 2021 announcement of its settlement
with Rite Aid Corporation.
Hy-Vee's COVID-19 Vaccine Registration Portal, currently located at
www.hy-vee.com/my-pharmacy/covid-vaccine<http://www.hy-vee.com/my-pharmacy/c
ovid-vaccine>, was not accessible to some people with disabilities,
including those who use screen reader software and those who have a hard
time using a mouse. For instance, people who used screen readers would not
hear the questions on the medical screening forms, and people who used the
tab key instead of a mouse could not select available appointment times.
"Individuals with disabilities must be able to get potentially lifesaving
healthcare like COVID-19 vaccines on equal terms, without sacrificing their
privacy or independence," said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of
the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division. "Ensuring that people with
disabilities can schedule COVID-19 vaccination appointments the same way
that people without disabilities can is not only a public health necessity,
but a key civil rights issue under the Americans with Disabilities Act."
Under today's settlement, Hy-Vee will make content about the COVID-19
vaccine, including the forms for scheduling an appointment to get the
vaccine, conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), Version
2.1, Level AA. WCAG is a set of voluntary industry guidelines for making
information on a website accessible to users with disabilities. Hy-Vee also
must regularly test the pages of its website about vaccine scheduling and
information and quickly fix any problems that keep people with disabilities
from being able to use these pages.
This matter was handled jointly by the Disability Rights Section of the
Civil Rights Division and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern
District of Iowa. Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
requires public accommodations like drugstores and grocery stores to provide
individuals with disabilities with full and equal enjoyment of goods and
services, such as vaccines. The ADA also requires public accommodations to
ensure effective communication with people with disabilities, including by
using auxiliary aids and services like accessible technology.

ADA, please call the department's toll-free ADA Information Line at
800-514-0301 (TDD 800-514-0383) or visit www.ada.gov<http://www.ada.gov>.
