In Denmark, a law was recently enacted allowing (not requiring) employers to demand a "coronapas" (health passport). Many of the largest municipalities have availed themselves of this possibility (including my employer).
You have a valid coronapas if you've been vaccinated, had a negative PCR test in the last 72 hours, or had a negative antigene test in the last 48 hours, or have recovered from covid in the last 6 months.
The obvious problem (and the reason why cases are exploding) is that vaccinated people are spreading the virus because most don't bother to get tested (why should they? People were told that the vaccine would defeat the pandemic and many still believe this). Unvaccinated, otoh, are getting regularly tested and must self-isolate if they test positive.
Mass vaccination against an airborne virus is not the best way to defeat the pandemic. Regular testing and effective contact tracing is.
Vaccination should have been reserved for the high-risk groups (although even triple-vaccinated elderly people are dying, as are those with comorbidities).

I just don't think the authorities are smart or cynical enough to foresee and plan something like that (in Denmark) IMO, the responses to the virus have been driven by media hysteria and politicians doing what they think will make them look good.

The whole design is about fighting against STEM and producing an economy in which creativity is rewarded. The politicians took that are twisted it to their needs. https://imgur.com/C9bqUfh https://imgur.com/C9bqUfh Zoom in and read exactly what they are still working on. Bonus points if you see what isn't labelled on that graph. >IMO, the responses to the virus have been driven by media hysteria and politicians doing what they think will make them look good. It's really just the next step. In which if you say that producing all these infographics and having a large cohort of support clearly indicates intention. It's appropriate for elected officials to have these plans. There is no 'conspiracy' but what do you think about the possibility that these folks were driving the public to hysteria in order to justify these plans?
- a0-prw 5y agoI have no doubt that the elite like to tell themselves that they are planning things and steering this world. I also have no doubt that the disaffected of this world would also like this story to be true, so they could have a nice target for their wrath. What I think is, honestly, it's all just a spectacular clusterfuck. Humans are just not smart enough in big groups to coordinate a global action like that.
