Biometrics in future of vaccine passports Any kind of document, especially a passport, needs to be built on a foundation that allows it to operate across borders and jurisdictions. Biometrics could be the easiest and fastest path to get started. It can add convenience and security, while identifying a person’s vaccination status easily.
Modern biometric solutions have many different modalities at their disposal, from fingerprints and face to voice and iris recognition. The biometric modalities most likely to be used for vaccine passports, however, are anticipated to be face or voice recognition, as these can easily be performed on an existing mobile device. For a person to access a vaccine passport they would present their face or voice as part of the authentication process instead of entering a username or password or answering a security question.
Here are the benefits that biometrics can provide for vaccine passports:
Security: Digital documents such as a vaccine passport can provide numerous benefits, but to make sure personal information and health records are safe, they need to be secure. Security needs to be high on the list when aiding the creation of a digital document, which means the digital solution that is supporting it must be robust. Since a Vaccine Passport would be more secure than a physical certificate, it could leverage biometrics to provide extensive security. Biometrics rely on something you are–your face, voice, iris, etc.—instead of something you have, like a password or the answer to a security question. This stronger security method could decrease instances of theft or hacking, ensuring personal information stays safe.
Spoof Resistance: It has been speculated that the paper vaccine card may not be enough to allow international travel once borders open again after COVID-19. One potential reason is because they are quite easy to replicate...

I am waiting for that to be the name of a big company with a government contract...
I’ve said this before but if you’re going to use biometrics, then you don’t need any kind of ID at all. No passports, no drivers license, no credit cards. Nothing. Just a scanner of some kind or another.
Not offered as a case in favor of the idea. Just saying...
This is absolute evil.
21st Century Show me your papers...
As a software architect I don’t want anything related to security, buying, or selling tied to biometrics - it is the one thing that can’t be changed if compromised.
We’re really setting ourselves up to be canceled at the flick of a switch if we do.
This is great. And the whole generation that loves tattoos will love this. In fact, they may not even want the invisible kind. They may want a fancy tattoo that holds the biometric data.

How about this guy go **** himself.
Precisely. The Filth Cabal, including the WEF, have made clear that the mass acceptance of biometrics is essential to their totalitarian plans. This article is a trial balloon useful to gauge public reaction to the idea. Death to the leftist, Globalst Filth Cabal.
Last weekend I came home from a trip to Mexico. I have Global Entry bc I go there a lot for family.
This time, the kiosk instead of asking for my passport just asked me to look at the camera. In about 10 seconds it identified me and pulled my passport and flight info. That was from my passport photo on file.
I am not sure what it would do with twins — it might just have them use their passports.
It was pretty amazing - and a little frightening.
Final note for people who do not know Global Entry. At least at DFW and Miami, the kiosk issues you a “receipt” with your picture on it which you give to a human CBP agent. Theoretically that means it is not 100% automated.
But still...
I bet that number will be in the logo somewhere.

Oh he isn’t the only one looking hard at this.

Biometric security company CLEAR, which ranked No. 19 on this year’s CNBC Disruptor 50 list, recently released a product called Health Pass that links Covid-19 health information to biometric identifiers such as your face, eyes and fingerprints https://www.cnbc.com/2021/05/26/its-not-vaccine-passport-but-more-travelling-clear-post-pandemic.html
There have been a number of reports and articles such as this one, discussing the best way to provide vaccine passports.
There seems to be little discussion about whether we should be requiring the use of a vaccine passport. The unspoken assumption seems to be that we will have vaccine passports, and we need to figure out the best way to administer such a system. The discussion of whether we should have vaccine passports is bypassed entirely.
The absurdity will be the will Tag us and ID us for the smallest thing...
except for voting and illegal border crossing..
That last two will be and o0pen free for all
That is spooky. That is what they are saying this biometric covid thing will do.
Another solution looking for a problem.
“We don’t need no stinking vaccine passports.”
