I think that was the plan and some countries are closer to that than others but I think it will fail here, at least for now.
“The definition of “fully vaccinated” will change to include a current booster. If it’s been more than six months since your last booster, your vaccination status will expire. It will take a computer to keep up with everyone’s expirations, so vaccine passports will be tracked on your smartphone. This passport will be connected to other data on your phone—where you go, what you tweet, who your friends are—to create a social credit score that will be used, along with your vaccine passport, to restrict or permit access to products, services, and transportation. Since your financial institutions are probably already connected to your smartphone, it will only take the flip of a switch to turn off access to buying power. That should incentivize citizens to maintain good scores.’

What are the odds that this will occur before Christmas so as to mess with people’s plans/create angst between them and their Karen relatives who already have had the booster?
When will the CDC announce this?
Would it create more of a problem for people, and thus delight for the powers to be, to do this within a few days of Christmas? They will have to play up the idea that anyone who gets the booster on say, Dec. 22, is not fully vaccinated until after New Year’s.
Or will it be more fun for them to announce this this week on the theory that it will cause a rush of people getting the booster to be fully vaccinated two weeks from now?
I say they have to pull the trigger on this, no pun intended, by Friday at the latest.
Someone ask Dr. Kevin Homer, MD :
“what happens to people that don’t have smartphones?”
