The Center Square) – A digital civil rights group says Illinois’ “Vax Verify” program is a step in the wrong direction, and the worst they’ve seen yet.

The Illinois Department of Public Health announced the new digital COVID-19 vaccine certificate Wednesday.

“As more businesses, events, organizations, and others require proof of vaccination, Illinois residents will be able to confirm using Vax Verify that they have been vaccinated for COVID-19,” IDPH Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike said in a statement announcing the program. “With the current surge in cases, more people are making the decision to get a COVID-19 vaccine and this new tool will aid residents in confirming their vaccination where needed.”

“This system is horrible in Illinois,” Hancock said. “Using Experian is definitely one of the worst ones I’ve seen yet.”

If it’s any comparison to the FOID card. We’re all Doomed. It has been 1 year 2 weeks and 3 days since I sent in my FOID card renewal and still no word on if I will ever get my new card.

Even better, what if it is a way to screw you, even if vaccinated, because you voted wrong or criticized them!!!!

The local paper (Southeast Missourian) reprinted an article from the Epoch Times contrasting Southern Illinois and Southeast Missouri. While no where near as dramatic as crossing the border from say San Diego to Tijuana, there is a noticeable difference between the east and west sides of the Mississippi.
