Texas governor issues ban on government-mandated ‘vaccine passports’

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued an executive order banning state government entities from enforcing the so-called ‘vaccine passports.” According to the governor, this ban would apply to “any public or private entity that is receiving or will receive public funds through any means, including grants, contracts, loans, or other disbursement of taxpayer funds.”  The order reads: “Whereas, an individual’s COVID-19 vaccination status is private health information, and no governmental entity should compel disclosure of this information by mandating a so-called ‘vaccine passport’ for COVID-19 or by otherwise conditioning receipt of services on an individual’s COVID-19 status.” 

Abbott said in a statement announcing the order: “We will continue to vaccinate more Texans and protect public health — and we will do so without treading on Texans’ personal freedoms.”

In Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a similar executive order banning businesses from requiring customers to prove they have been vaccinated against COVID-19 to get service and barred any government agency in Florida from issuing such documentation to provide proof of vaccinations.

Helen Mirren to play Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir in ‘Golda’

Helen Mirren will portray Golda Meir, Israel’s only female Prime Minister, in a biopic titled Golda. The screenplay follows the decisions Meir made during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. The war involved Egypt, Syria and Jordan launching a surprise attack on the Sinai Peninsula and the Golan Heights.

Academy Award winning filmmaker Guy Nattiv (Skin) is serving as director. Nattiv said in a statement: “As someone who was born during the Yom Kippur War, I am honored to tell this fascinating story about the first and only woman to ever lead Israel. Nicholas Martin’s brilliant script dives into Golda’s final chapter as the country faces a deadly surprise attack during the holiest day of the year, a core of delusional generals undermining Golda’s judgement, all the while undergoing secret treatments for her illness. I could not be more excited to work with the legendary Miss Mirren to bring this epic, emotional and complex story to life.”

Golda is expected to begin production in October.
