Vaccine Passport

There has been a lot of discussion regarding a vaccine passport.  I read on Twitter, US Representative Mike Loychik said "vaccine passports have no place in a free society".  U S Representative Marjorie Taylor Green said "They are actually talking about people's ability to buy and sell linked to the vaccine passport.  They might as well call it Biden's Mark of the Beast".

I've had a Vaccine passport since 1981.  The first time I used it is when I went to Singapore.  I've never thought of it as a bad thing, it let me into Singapore.  I need more shots for my trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana.  I was going to get the shots last summer but as the trip has been postponed, I will wait before I go to the Travel Clinic.  I'll take my "Canadian 1981 Vaccine Record" and see what documentation they give in 2021.  

Do these US Representatives ever travel?

VACCINE PASSPORT

We've been hearing about "vaccine passports" since before there was a viable vaccine. Over the past few weeks, the concept has been generating even more buzz, now that several highly effective vaccinations are rolling out.

Although we have yet to see a universal solution, countries are beginning to reopen exclusively to vaccinated travelers, and more should be accessible soon. Learn what this sudden shift means for you, with:

While some governments are exploring options on their own, a number of companies and organizations have offered up various tech solutions. In the U.S., one of the more promising options so far is now available from Clear, the company behind speedy security screening, pictured above.
