I don’t know if this surprises anyone, but we used to have to show vaccine passports in the old days if you traveled internationally. I have one from the Seventies that I actually came across a few weeks ago when cleaning up some old records. It listed which vaccinations I had received and was certified by my then doctor. I know I specifically had to have it to travel to countries in Europe.
Sorry, I think it was on a State Department form. I found it tucked in with my old expired passport from that period.
they weren’t mandatory and they weren’t used domestically, except maybe for ID reasons.
Absolutely no comparison to this unconstitutional domestic overreach.
I remember that well.
But we were required to have genuine vaccines for genuine diseases - not some wonky and dangerous Emergency Use Authorization concoction where we were the test guinea pigs for a relatively mild disease.
Key word is internationally.
People on this forum resent being stopped in our car at night by two burly guards in overcoats who demand “Papers” and then “Papers not in order, you are coming to the police station. Now.”
