CBS DECLARES: You’ll Need A COVID ‘Vaccination Passport’ To Travel By Summer 2021 - Without a mention of privacy rights the mainstream media appears to be all in for making you ‘show your papers’
National File ^ | 02/13/2021 | Frank Salvato

As the United States prepares to open back up after the unnecessarily long COVID lockdowns, the mainstream media is shaping the narrative that “vaccination passports” will not only be required for travel, but that they will arrive as a necessity by this summer.

CBS News travel editor, Peter Greenberg, almost appeared gleeful when he predicted two things: that travel – both domestic and international – would most likely return this summer, and that there would be a prerequisite to being able to travel.

Greenberg stated bluntly that in order to travel you will most likely need proof that you’ve been vaccinated for COVID. Vaccination passports, he said, will be the new standard in travel.

“It will be required,” Greenberg said. “The real question is what technology will be available to create a universally acceptable and universally readable document that can’t be forged.”

A new term has entered the vocabulary among governments and in the travel industry: vaccine passport. In the near future, travel may require proof that passengers have been vaccinated or tested negative for the coronavirus. https://t.co/imfNDCvWAU

— The New York Times (@nytimes) February 4, 2021

He noted that preliminary versions of a vaccine passport – or health passport – are being developed by several outlets, in both the public and private sectors – and in some cases a combination of both, around the world.

Greenberg spotlighted the effort taking place in Denmark, pointing out that the Nordic nation is creating a digital passport for citizens that will contain all your current medical information that can be updatable on that digital card.”

The CBS News reporter, speaking with a level of authority usually reserved for higher-level medical professionals intimate with the COVID pandemic, said while digital versions of “your papers” appear to be the goal, early models will likely be physical.

One entrepreneur has come up with two versions of a vaccination passport, one for international travel and another for domestic. The international version has e-vaccine technology that is tantamount to an electronic version of your health records.

His domestic – or basic version (without the e-vaccine technology), he suggests, would be more appropriate for domestic travel and daily interactions. Both versions hold information about which vaccine was administered, where it was administered, and when.

The Times reports that airlines, nonprofits, industry groups and tech companies are all working on launching an app or digital proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 test. https://t.co/L9xgwPdApV

Greenberg told local reporters that vaccine verification would most likely become commonplace for cruise lines and some airlines as soon as July.

“They’re gonna be asking for it at your point of departure and your point of entry,” Greenberg said. He continued on saying additional places where you might be asked to “show your papers” include airline ticket counters, passport control lanes, and Customs and Border Protection embarkation points.

Lost in the madness to rush to vaccine documentation requirements are existing HIPPA laws and the very issue of privacy.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA) created a national standard for protecting sensitive patient information. Included in the Protected Health Information (PHI) are not only your name, social security number, address(es), phone number(s), test results, and diagnoses, but also personal and behavioral attributes that can help anyone – including travel industry companies – single out an individual.

Additionally, the Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution’s Bill of Rights protects against illegal search and seizure, stating clearly:

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

Curiously, there have been no privacy advocate groups stepping up to challenge the encroachment into the privacy of Americans where the questionable subject of vaccine documentation is concerned.

“this is not the American it once was. I’m too old to leave, but young people might consider it.”

It’s not even close to the America it once was. We also are too old to leave — but still research possibilities (Panama, Honduras, Costa Rica). I wouldn’t be surprised if my nephew with three little girls is considering leaving.

Hey, this is great! Maybe they can set things up so we can use this ID to buy food, too! Like an EBT card or something. Make thing so much easier at the check out. Uhhhhh....wait. No, no, no...hold off on that for a minute. Let me think about this.

“These “nanoparticles” have been used before and are not some brand new AMAZING invention.”

Along with ID2020, Bill Gates is pushing quantum dot vaccination tattoos.

“MIT has been developing the quantum tattoo at Bill Gates’ direction and funding. MIT researchers have “found a covert way to embed the record of a vaccination directly in a patient’s skin rather than documenting it electronically or on paper—and their low-risk tracking system could greatly simplify the process of maintaining accurate vaccine records, especially on a larger scale,” according to ScienceAlert.Com.”

Yup—the tech is here now.

You won’t have to “show your papers”—they will _know_ if you are an obedient citizen.

Better yet (for our rulers)—they don’t need to tell us they know until they decide we are “ready” to hear the truth.

My prediction is that they will use a variation of “parallel construction”. They will know who they trust and who they do not trust—and will look for excuses to arrest those they do not trust on other charges—while looking the other way at the same offenses for “trusted citizens”.

They could also secretly “blacklist” untrusted citizens to keep them from being employed in big corporate or government white collar jobs.

The vaccine is a de facto “obedience test”.

The legal system and courts would never know the difference.

Notice that this works regardless of the merits of the vaccine—everyone becomes rats in a maze that they don’t know is there.

We are being re-programmed for the Great Reset. Months to break old habits/norms, months to establish new habits/norms.

Disconnect sheeple from one another with lockdowns (minimize chatter) and anonymize them with masks (makes snitching easier).

Then, require Covid tracing apps (so you are tracked forever after). Then require ImmuniPass cards to enter businesses, schools and events (to ensure you get your dose of whatever is in the vaccine).

Then, fiscally control, disarm and herd the proles into their work precincts, leaving prime real estate only for state/business elites.

This has been well planned by UN/WHO/CDC/Soros/Gates/China/communists/Democrats.

Orwell's 1984 was off by 40 years.

The mark will be a visual mark that can be seen instantly. That said, there is nothing that says the mark can’t include a subdermal chip.

I think further along in the reset there won’t even be “work precincts”.

Robots and a few selected “trusted” individuals will serve the elites and live in the “enclaves”.

Everybody else will be “surplus humans” and treated as sub-humans.

Our daughter’s family is considering it. It’s too bad that so many foreign countries don’t allow gun ownership or make it very difficult. It’s just sad. I remember how the USA once was. I never dreamed it would turn to socialism and “get whitey” attacks.

I know someone who got both injections recently. They can not shake the mysterious "brain fog" they have developed after the shots. This person is in their 30's. This is only the beginning. People taking these injections are now the subjects of medical experimentation and the long term risks are completely unknown.

Ping!

Brick by brick they are building their Antichrist technofasist system.

A “global” ID system...now where have we read about that before? (Hint: Revelation 13)

“Everybody else will be “surplus humans” and treated as sub-humans.”

Hence the population reduction parts of The Great Reset (via a deadly virus release, increased easy abortions, letting old people die, mask-induced illness, vaccination-induced infertility, etc.).

Fewer unnecessary eaters = less food required, less services and production required, less policing required, etc.

Then, herd the remainders into urban areas/districts for easier monitoring and control. The prole-less green spaces (except for necessary state corporate farming) not only helps save the Earth, but will also be much more enjoyable for the elites.

“They can not shake the mysterious ‘brain fog’ they have developed after the shots.”

Sounds a little like the “chemo brain” my friend described to me. Sounds like it affects different people in many different ways.

I just got off the phone with my friend who’s 80. She’s in great shape, hikes 10 miles a couple times a week — a force of nature. She got her first shot this week. When she got home she was so exhausted she took a nap, which she NEVER does. She slept for three hours, got up and felt “wonderful”.

If everyone gets one that wants one, I’m happy taking my chances by NOT getting one.

Why? Because if everyone gets one that wants one, and it’s as safe as the government says, then either the people in my sphere will not get it, and thus I won’t, or if I get it, I can’t give it to anyone in my sphere.

So, no. I will not be getting any vaccine from the government. When I was in the Navy, I had no choice, as I had literally signed away my life and decisions to them. I’m 50, well out of the military, and thus, get to make my own decisions.

I’ll succumb to lead poisoning before getting this, or any other, vaccine.

I’m glad that you had no bad affects from the vaccine.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not a dedicated “Anti-Vaxxer”, per se. I believe that smallpox, Polio and other vaccines were a blessing. The aforementioned diseases were horrible diseases and the vaccines were a godsend.

The same applies to the Anthrax vaccine. Better to risk the vaccine than to contract that deadly disease.

As for the Corona virus, the survival rate is incredibly high. It’s not a disease.

I believe that the WuFlu vaccines were rushed out too quickly and are unnecessary and unproven.

The totalitarians state that even if one takes the vaccine, they will still have to wear the face diapers, so why even bother??

Good luck.

True. But trump rushed it. That’s why I trust it. Biden didn’t do anything with the vaccine.

You know what else I hear being talked about a great deal...digital identity theft. People will be eager to have a system to protect themselves from that. They are already paying for identity theft insurance. People will be relieved to know that through the Mark of the Beast technology access to their home/car/office/bank or market accounts/tax records/medical records/etc. will be more secure.

It won’t apply to them of the political class. It only applies to second class citizens and below.
