Dr. Fauci said the U.S. Government will not ‘mandate’ the use of COVID passports, unlike Europe where the use of ‘Digital Green Certificates’ is already in use. These digital passports allow those who have been vaccinated to travel across all 27 countries, and some events are already requesting that spectators can prove they’ve been vaccinated or have a recent negative result.
Only New York has initiated a vaccine passport called the Excelsior Pass which shows you’ve had a negative COVID test within the last 72 hours.
But the esteemed Doctor Fauci said that here the government will not be using these so-called COVID immunization passports.
‘You could foresee how an independent entity might say: “Well, we can’t be dealing with you unless we know you’re vaccinated,”‘ Fauci told Politico host Jeremy Siegel.
‘But it’s not gonna be mandated from the federal government.’
Leary of privacy concerns and how to implement a national system, Biden’s administration is leaving it up to individual States to decide what to do.
