Yep you read the right a restaurant in the US is demanding that people who want to eat in their establishment have to be unvaccinated.
The eatery called Basilico’s Pasta E Vino, in California, is a lockdown sceptics idea of a good night out. We will leave them to it.

Accompanying pics show the Italian restaurant emblazoned with signs that read: “NOTICE: Proof of being UNvaccinated required.”
“We have zero tolerance for treasonous, anti-American stupidity,” the now-viral notice adds.
Earlier this month, rocker Eric Clapton announced that he will refuse to perform in any venues that require guests to have been vaccinated against COVID-19. Ian Brown and Richard Ashcroft have also made similar statements.
Reactions
As you would expect a lot of people were astonished at the demand and made their feelings felt on social media.

I wonder if the owner of this restaurant also owns a Funeral Parlor?
