>Vaccination in NY/NYC is easily proven. Picture of your vaccine card is sufficent

That’s easily faked. To prove vaccination, a picture of a card is not sufficient. If that’s all that’s required as proof then this won’t accomplish anything meaningful.



That's exactly the problem. This will be linked to a central authority that then will be able to record all you travel and activity. Able to turn it off and geo-fence you. Social Credit system for the west.


Perhaps, but so far this isn't a problem. Let's stay focused on the actual problems that we're facing. Maybe some businesses as you suggest will refuse a picture and only accept the physical card. So far this may be up to businesses to decide for themselves.

This is otherwise whataboutism about an issue that isn't an issue.

FWIW, the excelsior pass may be far harder to fake and end up being a solution to this currently non-problem
