Covid status certification is being developed in the United
Kingdom while, in New York, it's already a reality. And many
believe it's only matter of time before the Australian
Government considers implementing similar requirements here.
The proposed UK Covid certification system would be similar to
its counterpart in New York, in so far as it would record whether a
person had been vaccinated, had recently tested negative to Covid
or had natural immunity due to having already had the virus.
The UK Government says such a scheme is necessary in order to
safely hold gatherings and
events while Covid remains active in the community. After
extensive lockdowns in Britain, businesses such as pubs,
non-essential retail and restaurants, are scheduled to open in
coming weeks.
