Does it make you feel safer that the Department of Defense had such a hand in the cards that prove you were vaccinated? The fact that if you get the vaccine you can then spread it isn't very comforting nor is the chat of how many places are going to require tracking phones and proof of vaccine. I'm all for science and saving lives but seeing that if you break your ankle you may be told "tough shit", something just seems way off on the whole thing. Basically the public is being told if it's anything other then Covid ........oh well. It's so bad that even my jaded ass is questioning about everything.
Here are some links to further make you feel like you are in an existential crisis or that CERN really did some weird interdimensional shift and everything truly is upside down.

This quote is scary given the players behind it and think there will be pushback more then they realize when people don't want Apple and Microsoft "marking" them as supposedly safe or not.
Plenty of technologists are working to make it a reality. Companies of all sizes have been pouring in resources: Microsoft, major airlines, Ticketmaster, prominent nonprofits, security companies, tech startups and blockchain companies are all taking hacks at what some call vaccine passports. Apple and Google have participated in discussions about how to create digital Covid-19 vaccine certificates, experts said, but they haven't announced plans.
