In an op-ed for The Washington Post, Drew Altman suggests a way out of the heated debate about a COVID-19 vaccination passport to help provide clarity about who is vaccinated and who still ought to wear masks in public spaces or the workplace by using something that already exists– CDC vaccination cards.
He writes, “the idea of vaccine passports has been discarded prematurely here. Using the CDC vaccination cards is far better than doing nothing, which leaves unclear who can safely go unmasked. This is the most feasible option, and it can be put into widespread use without any government requirements.”
Before the complaining starts about being watched or herd like sheep.
One goes to the airport to check in. What is required or you don’t fly?
Identification (passport, drivers license, another form of picture ID)
You attempt to enter an establishment (lets say nice restaurant) and there is a dress code. What if you aren’t dressed? You don’t get to enter AND don’t eat there.
This “could” apply here HOWEVER, Washington Post (HAHAHAHA) as well as a nation lead by politicos – we still have no clue what to do concerning a pandemic and the future aftermath. Its trial and error in a nutshell. Masks, no masks – when it prohibits something – then we are inclined to complain.
Still remember the old days where if you didn’t get vaccinated for public school – you didn’t attend until showing you received your shots (plural there, it was several).
Times have changed.
Yes Creampuff, we needed those vaccines back in the day but those vaccines were approved by the FDA, these aren’t!
Plus, you made a case for Voter ID’s!
My point exactly. Mandated versus should get. Gov’t has changed and so has reporting via media.
Nothing will get done and there will continue to be a divide. Easier living back in the day, times now aren’t as easy as before.
So you want the SS to go around and demanding your papers?
They can Eff-off
what about people that have been tested with antibodies a year later?
So what’s to stop me from printing one up at home tonight?
If you do not need ID to vote then you do not need a Vaccination Card. SURE I WILL TAKE THE VACCINE. JUST MAIL IT TO ME. MY HEALTH AND SAFETY ARE TOO IMPORTANT FOR ME TO SHOW UP IN PERSON. IT IS JUST LIKE MAIL-IN-VOTING, YOU KNOW?? SAFE, SECURE AND HONEST. SO JUST MAIL ME THE VACCINE, I WILL GIVE MYSELF THE SHOT AND THEN SEND BACK THE PAPERWORK SAYING I AM VACCINATED. YOU ALL TRUST ME, RIGHT?????
Another way to require usage of an experimental illegal drug. They have no idea of side effects and if it actually works and for how long.
If this experimental illegal drug is so good why has there been more deaths during this time frame from regular flu?
I will not take, volunteer or be mandated to take an experimental drug.
Nazi Germany, Russia and Italy used these tactics to control their citizens. LEARN YOUR WORLD HISTORY.
Take Both And Fold Them Into Paper Airplanes And Toss Them Into The Sky !@#&!
Democrats say 15 dollars an hour 2400 a month is a must to be able to survive … If that is true why is the minimum social security payment 600 dollars
