Stop putting words in my mouth and inventing scenarios. My argument is that the chances of contracting HIV from the person sitting next to you is beyond remote. I have already stated that diseases that can be transmitted by air are different. Please stop conflating HIV with the coronavirus.

Your argument seems to be what if the random person sitting next to me is infected and what if they are not wearing a mask and what if the airflow moves the virus into my space and what if I take a breath at the right time and what if I am one of those that vaccine doesn't work for and what if I am one of those who will develop symptoms and what if the symptoms I develop are severe? With all those "if"s I would say that the chances of me, a vaccinated person, contracting COVID from the random person sitting next to me is also beyond remote.
It is irrational to think that a vaccine passport, once adopted, will only be required for COVID. Once that door is opened the Govt (and frightened people) will find more and more conditions that absolutely need to be on that passport. Today, you plan to be vaccinated so the passport will only affect those people (and good riddance to them). However, tomorrow there will be that other thing that is added to the passport that affects you. THAT is what I'm worried about. How do the sayings go....
- the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
- absolute power corrupts absolutely
- it seemed like such a good idea at the time
