It’s interesting to me that some of the arguments for “vaccine passports” sound a lot like the arguments for voter ID: “well, you already have to be vaccinated to do other things like travel to certain countries, attend public schools, so why not require it for visiting a museum or attending a concert?” But that slippery slope argument always seems a little…precarious. I can understand vaccine passports as a temporary measure until COVID-19 cases reach very low levels, but I worry if this becomes a permanent thing.
