If this is something that needs to be done then let's use technology and do it right. A chip implanted under the skin could hold all that information with no problem. Medical personal could easily update the information when new vaccinations are given. Scanners installed at the entrances to trains or airports or sports stadiums could automatically read the chip for the required vaccinations and alarm when someone isn't safe. For smaller or temporary venues, a hand scanner could do the same thing. The technology likely exists, let's use it. But technology fails sometimes too. The chips would need batteries which could run down or the chips could fail or perhaps the chip could even be removed or lost. Plus, there may be some low-tech countries that could not afford the chips and scanners. Maybe a better, more economical solution would be to tattoo a number on everyone's forearm and have a global database that holds the information. It would be easy to manually read the number, to enter it on forms, or even to have a scanner read it optically. A globally-unique ID should be possible and numerical tattoos have been around for a while. If carrying and presenting this information is that critical then let's do it right.

No one is requiring that you have proof of vaccination to go to a concert in the USA. What they're requiring, is that you have proof of immunization of various diseases, in various countries. Those proofs of immunization are ALREADY required. You could have just a card, that is like a credit card, containing digital information of immunization. Just like when they scan your credit card at the store and they instantly have access to your name, address, bank account. Just like if you get pulled over for a traffic violation, the police see your license and have access to your name, address, date of birth, any previous arrests, wants and warrants, recent previous violations... and just like if you need to go to a doctor, they check your medicare information, which has all kinds of information about your personal life - if you're married, who your next of kin is, what kind of insurance you have, every bit of medical information about you including the last time you got your prescription for viagra... Your information is EVERYWHERE, and easily accessible. If you are paranoid about people learning whether or not you're immune to a disease, you probably have more problems in life than any disease could possibly give you. |

Really? Not having immunity to C19 IS already having negative effects on what one is allowed or banned from doing. Vaxxers have gone mad, insisting everyone inject. With the vaccine, you have the immunity and still insist I must be vaccinated to keep you safe. But I'm the paranoid with more problems? Laughable. Last edited by Becca9800; 05-04-2021 at 07:38 AM. |

Vaccinations should be tattooed on you so that everyone can tell you are safe. Maybe a chip, also. Like your pets. That way, you have the added advantage in case you get lost and the authorities need to return you to your residence. Some folks NEED constant supervision. Perhaps "Visiting Angels" should be provided by the gov for those "needy" folks.

I just read through the 12 pages of this thread. Whew! I especially appreciated (because I learned a lot) those posters who validated their views with the sources they based their views on. A far cry from those whose postings are nothing more than what sounds like (and I could be wrong) defensive personal opinions.
There is nothing funny about Covid-19, especially to the millions of victims and their families, even it they make up such a small percentage of total population. I had two persons very close to me (and two others more casual friends) who died of this horrific disease, leaving their families devastated. But I can already imagine the kind of stand-up that will eventually come, possibly along the lines of part of these posts: Quote:

Remember we survived “the trampling on our civil liberties” when seat belts became mandatory. We will survive Covid too (though not Cain, Leflow, Magufulu, Leachman, and Seaver—and millions of others). |

The seat belt thing didn't make me as irritated as the 55 MPH speed limit!
