Column: No shoes, no shot, no service. Why vaccine ‘passports’ are a good idea

LA Times  

Are vaccination passports the next step in our COVID-19 battle? After a year of angry battles over lockdowns, mask mandates and vaccinations, a new front has opened in the coronavirus culture war: vaccine “passports.” If you travel overseas this summer, European countries will demand a document proving you’ve been vaccinated or have tested negative. “But that’s a criticism of the vaccination program, not the passport,” Arthur Caplan, a medical ethicist at New York University, told me. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the QAnon-friendly congresswoman from Georgia, said the vaccine certificate is “Biden’s mark of the beast,” like the demonic identifier in the New Testament’s Book of Revelation. “We view this as something that the private sector is doing.” And that’s why the GOP resistance to the vaccine passport, while it may please culture-war militants, will prove futile.
