So even with everything right, as good as it gets, and the trolls STILL made everyone wear the stupid face mask.

WTF is up with that?
Almost like it’s just woke people virtue signaling.
Exactly! And, why digital apps, just carry and show the WHO yellow card. I’ve got a bunch including my latest showing yellow fever, typhoid, tetanus, COVID, Hep A & B. I’m happy it show when asked, big whoop!

The masks will be the last thing to go. I expect to be laughing for years to come at die-hard hold-outs who continue to triple-mask while walking their dogs.

Saw a guy the other day. Outside. By himself. Jogging. Wearing a mask.

Interesting about Mecca. Didn't think Saudi Arabia would take such a hard line, but I guess when you have people coming from all over the world into one space, it does make a nice little international petri dish.

I haven't read too far into these, but it sounds like most vaccine passports are an app where you'd upload an image of your vaccination card or just its details? Sounds easy to fake, especially when you consider the multitude of avenues someone could get vaccinated and lack of centralized database - the record keeping must be spotty at best.

I’m afraid when it comes to flying, it will stick around like the 3-1-1 rule.

The Mecca experience involves being shoulder to shoulder with vast numbers of people from all over. Literally tens of thousands... so yeah, can't really blame them.

IIRC, they gave out cholera or meningitis vaccinations in year’s past. Show us a yellow card or step over there.

Many US Universities will require vaccines for the fall semester (assuming regular FDA approval this summer)...
