I don't no the English Wikipedia rules on it, but isn't this "WP:OR"? Habitator terrae (talk) 13:05, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

@Jpatokal: The really first known "immunity passports" are like this certificate. If you want scientific literature on this, please read this (cited by Nature and Lancet). Habitator terrae (talk) 13:11, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Possibly a BIG problem with the passport

The article's COVID section needs to discuss this important point: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/08/health/covid-vaccine-mask.html

...the Pfizer and Moderna trials tracked only how many vaccinated people became sick with Covid-19. That leaves open the possibility that some vaccinated people get infected without developing symptoms, and could then silently transmit the virus — especially if they come in close contact with others or stop wearing masks.

If vaccinated people are silent spreaders of the virus, they may keep it circulating in their communities, putting unvaccinated people at risk.

“A lot of people are thinking that once they get vaccinated, they’re not going to have to wear masks anymore,” said Michal Tal, an immunologist at Stanford University. “It’s really going to be critical for them to know if they have to keep wearing masks, because they could still be contagious.” Peter K Burian (talk) 00:01, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

"Vaccine passport" as alternative name?

Is this a vaccine passport? I am unclear. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:48, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Bluerasberry, yes agreed, this needs to be cleared up because Vaccine passport is a redirect but the article says An immunity passport is not the same as a vaccination record (also called a vaccination certificate), which is a record proving someone has received certain vaccines.

I also agree that the name should also be vaccination certificates. Rheazhii (talk) 05:55, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
