The Gist
Some 'digital health passport' companies have already partnered with major airlines.
The List
- Dozens of companies are currently in the process of developing mobile applications that will function as digital health passports including IBM.
- Though these have not yet been made mandatory, though some experts believe it is only a matter of time.
- Conversely, some health experts warn that vaccination may not be enough to prevent the spread of Covid-19, which would render the digital health passports useless.
- Critics are calling the digital health passports an invasion of privacy, though the creators of these passports insist personal data will be kept confidential.
