White House sees no federal mandate for COVID-19 vaccine verification

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House said it expected the private sector to take the lead on verification of COVID-19 vaccines, or so-called vaccine passports, and would not issue a federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential.

The Biden administration was reviewing the issue and would make recommendations, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said on Monday, but she added, “We believe it will be driven by the private sector.”

Psaki said the White House was leading an inter-agency process looking at these issues, and would provide guidance in line with several key principles:

“There are a couple key principles that we are working from. One is that there will be no centralized universal federal vaccinations database, and no federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential,” she said.

Looks like the CDC card will be it.

1. There's going to have to be something in place, for what happens if someone gets hired at

a business, and they claimed that they have been vaccinated against Covid 19, and then they get sick (in short, they didn't get vaccinated (in short committed fraud in claiming that they were vaccinated)), the other employees, customers, etc. all were unnecessarily exposed to Covid 19 because of a lie/fraudulent claim by the employee (hopefully soon to be fired employee). Believe me, if I worked somewhere and someone was just recently hired, I'd want to know that they are indeed safe and vaccinated.

In Europe, I heard that they resorted to putting a vaccination stamp on people's arms, since so many were claiming that they were vaccinated when in fact, they weren't. It's been some time since I've heard anything else about this process (stamping one's arm), would be interesting to see if successful.

Perhaps in some states, where (and it may be in all states), if one is sick w/ hepatitis, or something similar (a STD for example), and then had unprotected sex, got someone else sick, then that person is actually charged w/ a crime of exposing someone to HIV or such, and charged under the criminal code appropriately, for exposing someone to Covid 19. As they should be.

2. Capitalism

I would think that companies, airlines, and tourist destinations could demand proof of vaccination because, you know, capitalism. And I’m sure someone will develop an app for that.
