Yesterday’s Talking Point: Are you in favour of vaccine passports if it means you can go to events?
Yesterday we asked for your opinions about vaccine passports.
It seems that the verdict is split. Some of you were against the passports - Adam S. Cohen said that he didn’t want to have to “disclose [his] personal medical records to attend any event,” while Melanie Dyson Vieira thought that “testing before the event would be best.”
