Just a generalization about giving up some measure of freedom for some measure of (perceived) safety. How about a highway analogy?:

Some people drive 65 on a 70 interstate and stay in the right lane
Some people set their cruise control to 75
Some people want to go 95 and weave all over the place
And then a few bozos park themselves in the left lane at 55 because THEY feel that is fast enough

So, the 65 drivers want a state trooper every 1/2 mile to ticket anyone going 70.01
The 75 drivers don't care because they figure they'll never get a ticket for 75
The 95 drivers want no LEOs on the road, and if they do show up would like them to focus on ticketing the bozo going 55 in the left lane
And the 55 driver wants to change all the speed limits

Attitudes toward vaccine passports are pretty much the same thing
