Bill and Melinda, their names make me sick.

Somehow we have managed to maintain shot records for at least the last 70 years that I know of.

This is technology for its own sake and nothing more. Just far too clever by half.

I looked at the program for an industry conference this year. I had attended it most years for the last 4+ decades. The program is just about the same as for technical presentations but with new technology for old problems solved long ago by proper technique and not more obscure and complicated technology.

The only new theme was for improving diversity and digital data fluff.

The conference speakers are about 50% women. I guess diversity is when there are no more white males.

He who owns the technology profits from the technology.

Whether it is processing online payments or trading carbon credits or running credit checks or running vax checks.

According to the 2019 announcement from MIT (here), this is specifically created for third-world nations where there is no infrastructure to store medical records. You go to a rural village in Africa and ask them who's had measles vaccinations or ebola vaccinations or any others, and it's likely they don't have a clue. Let alone if you ask them if they had their third or fourth polio shot. That's the intended target audience. There's no need for it in the US or the rest of the western world. It's for places where people live in mud huts, but still don't want to die of preventable diseases.
