pete 319 Posted February 23, 2021 Not a football subject but important to everyone nonetheless for getting back to Carrow Rd. Boris reluctant to discuss vaccination passports. But recently had jab no 1 and was given card with date & vaccine type. With space to enter details for jab 2. Back of card says keep in wallet. Do they mean until jab 2 and NHS then keep after or will you keep card to show you have been vaccinated. Presuming card given to all wherever vaccination given. Please advise if you believe card will be retained if so it can be used if required to be shown for entry into football stadia. Obviously a question to be answered by the older fans a response would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are just a rectangle card with what vax you have had written on. They'd be on ebay within 5 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s more a reminder of the jab you had and for most the date of your second dose. Importantly it also has data about the batch number on it but certainly not up to the job of being a vaccine passport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a suggestion in some of the press that the NHS Covid app could be adapted to also become a vaccine passport, maybe pure speculation of course but does make sense to have all your NHS covid data on one app. Of course it may mean that some will have to buy new phones !!!

Foxy2600 301 Posted February 24, 2021 Just ask Piers Morgan - he knows everything! So if Boris sets up a committee to look into it Morgan will say its both incompetent to discuss it and an invasion of your liberty. Its like ID cards - the technology is there but its prejudiced against people who are breaking the law. Most importantly this is not the correct thread.

Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,558 Posted February 24, 2021 Government have been very keen to avoid a two tier society - those who have been vaccinated and those that haven’t. I doubt there will be a major policy shift to allow those who have received two jabs to start doing things while there are still millions yet to receive a single jab. Also, whether those who have been vaccinated still spread the virus has not been determined yet so I wouldn’t expect the vaccinated to be given any special treatment without that knowledge. With the aim to have nearly everyone given at least one shot by June there wouldn’t be a huge amount to gain by creating a two-tier system (which would likely be found unlawful in court anyway).

Most of the population don't WANT it, but will have it as its the only way forward. Its a small percentage of the population that will decline having it for what ever reason. thats their choice, but they have to live with the consequences of that, whatever they may be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's that attitude that has resulted in us seeing increases in measles and polio cases in recent years. You have to vaccinate EVERYONE that can take it, in order to keep those who can't have it and are susceptible to it safe. If you make exceptions for those who don't want to take it the whole thing breaks down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do feel sorry for those who clinically can't have the vaccine. However, as long as we get the numbers down to a small level, life can return to normal.

You can't send your kids to nursery if they haven't been vaccinated, and you can't put your dog in a boarding kennel if they haven't had their shots. Same should apply across society. If you've refused the jab with no medical exemption, you shouldn't be able to mix with others and put them at risk for your own selfish reasons. I would fully support vaccinations being made a legal requirement in this country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I would argue, what about our rights? If it went to court, the anti vaxers have no evidence to support their claims. And once again, religion has no evidence to say why it cannot be administered.
