It's even easier to fake vaccination status. Blank COVID cards are widely available. Most of them are handwritten - and even when vaccinated, they give them to you blank, you fill in your own name at home.
> Now, does anyone think the US can pull off getting peoples SSN , connect it to a blood test, send the SSN+result to the federal government and have them issue you a federal "antibody ID" which is directly connected to your SSN in a government database?
> We could only wish
No we don't. Americans are VERY against that kind of thing. Plus Social Security numbers are not supposed to be used as a national ID - that's not what they are for.
Not to mention how would you even do that? A Social Security card is not ID - you can say whatever number you want when getting vaccinated, no one would know.
> Americans are just really bad at these kinds of things. This is why we can't have nice things etc. etc. etc.
No, Americans are not bad at that - rather they don't want that. Don't confuse the two.

That's absolutely true, because the government response has been disorganized and bullshit. It's also why vax passes won't work; because the records are probably trash. > No, Americans are not bad at that - rather they don't want that. Don't confuse the two. No, we're really shit at it. Everybody who has been vaccinated would love for the government to have kept track of it, and would love to be able to ask for or give an easy proof of it. In my personal experience, the unvaccinated are also liars. They would, of course, not want it to be tracked, because they would like to continue to lie.
