today I was confronted by the future. I was at a restaurant and was told if I wanted to be seated I would have to scan the code on the table. Because I don't have a smart phone they said they couldn't serve me.
that makes me think about what else they could apply this to. I get the distinct feeling that something is in the post in regards to vaccination. There's already discussion about getting vaccinated and air travel. Do you get the feeling that there are going to be other requirements?
really, I can see it now - the vaccine passport. Unless you have some kind of electronic certification that you have been vaccinated, you're not going anywhere. Or doing anything. There is talk about it already in relation to concerts and sporting events.
there is talk about having enough vaccine to inoculate every Australian three times over. Not much discussion about what are in these vaccines exactly or inherent side effects - just the promise of something. So are the powers that be going to insist on such a promise?
who knows, maybe with the implementation of the vaccine or vaccines, they could create a whole electronic caste system. And here's me with my dumb phone, wanting to make phone calls. How arrogant.
