>Privacy conscious people object. Now the response is, hey, you already have to show your driving license if you get pulled over for speeding, what's the difference?
The main objections to vaccine passports in England aren't privacy, they're that it discriminates against those who refuse to get vaccinated.
>And you don't have to show your vaccine passport if you, um, never go outside again.
You'd have to show your vaccine passport if you want to partake in proportionately high risk activities where you not only have risk to yourself, but you also pose a risk to others. And it's [almost] always places you have to take ID anyway, to prove your age.
Why should those who chose to not do the socially responsible thing of getting vaccinated, get to amplify the risk to those who do?

- chii 5y agowhat is the privacy concern, other than the private info of whether you chose to get a vaccine or not?
- TeeMassive 5y agoThe reason people do not want to show their immunization status in public is nobody's business. There is no need to justify concern in the first place. Medical information secrecy is a fundamental right protected by the Constitution in the US and the Charter of Rights in Canada and for very good reasons.
