HIPAA doesn't prevent you from talking about your own medical procedures. This is just a voluntary badge you can put on your profile.

Anyone without a badge can be assumed to be unvacinated.
Let's use AIDS for example, they make a badge that is certified AIDS free and then offer free AIDS testing then you can assume anyone without the badge has AIDS.
This is a hipaa violation by publishing some users information that has approval and waivers you are exposing the other users information.
Going with this example, let's say you have a group of people who voted wrong and you want to punish them, you don't let them display the AIDS free badge. It is an abuse vector.
