that's what worries me the most with the medical passport that soon will be required everywhere just to go see a concert : now that it's there, it's never going to stop, it can only expand.
not only because the virus is very likely to follow the same path as the flu, and so people will need yearly vaccination with mediocre results, but also because politics will use this as a hammer and see nails everywhere.
On a sidenote, a 100€ / year vaccine every year, for 6 billions people, enforced by laws... sounds like a dream business model...
- breily 5y agoThis article has nothing to do with your hypothesized 'vaccine passport'.
- bsaul 5y agoNothing ? It says current vaccines are potentially unable to stop the spread of new variant. The vaccine passport is a tool designed to stop the spread, based on vaccine, with a potential huge impact on our societies for the next decades.. It's absolutely linked. If vaccines were able to completely stop the epidemic, then the passport would be a temporary thing. If not then it's permanent and a whole different story.
- presidente20 5y agoNot hypothetical. This is actively being discussed in several countries. Relevant because vaccine passports make even less sense if the vaccines don't work.
