Businesses Could Soon Begin Using Covid Vaccine Passports for Admission

BRITS may have to show a vaccine passport to go to a pub or restaurant Dominic Raab suggested today. Proposals to introduce documents to let immunized Brits lead a normal life are “under consideration” he said.

For several months we’ve been seeing the push for Covid vaccine passports to be implemented in order to facilitate safe re-entry into society. At first, we started seeing it teased that eventually airlines and concerts may employ this technology for the sake of public health.

Soon Singapore Airlines became the first to launch a Covid passport with others like the CommonPass being tried at other airports. This, at a time where calls for a global coronavirus vaccine passport of some kind have also been made by China and Tony Blair Institute for Global Change.

And like clockwork, we’re now seeing this trickle down into more personal areas of our lives – local businesses. In the UK, a Covid vaccine passport is being seen as a possibility. Soon Brits may have to have one to enter bars or restaurants, something I also said may eventually occur as this system becomes more prevalent.

Here in the US, business owners are debating whether to require Covid vaccines for their employees while in Scottsdale, Arizona, local businesses have already begun to try out a digital health passport known as ConfirmD with airports and restaurants in the area also possibly eyeing the technology,

We have businesses at Sky Harbor that are already using it,” said Ramsey Kilani, Co-founder of ConfirmD. “We’ve talked to a major airline who is very interested.”…”It’s going to become a passport for their ability to work, and we think eventually that’s something that’s going to go into the airport, restaurants,” said Bill Corn, The Director of Finance for Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club.

The question on our minds now may be “where’s this headed?” With some raising the alarm that this may lead to a Global Identity Document” (which is already being called for by the way), I’ve noted in previous articles that I believe this may very well be a precursor to the mark of the beast system spoken about in Revelation 13:16-17 that comes out during the tribulation period.

However, I do not believe the vaccine or this digital health passport technology is the mark of the beast, as it comes out during the tribulation. Regardless, this is something worth keeping our eyes on as it gets closer and closer to home.

 

Brits may have to show a Covid vaccine passport to go to a pub or restaurant

From The Sun: Whitehall has been looking at plans for vaccine passports for families to go on foreign holidays again. But this is the first time a Cabinet minister has broken cover to say that businesses in the UK could use them to let in or bar punters.

He told LBC: “It is something that hasn’t been ruled out and is something under consideration. “But of course you have got to make it workable. “The thing, when I have looked at this – whether it is on the international, domestic or local level – you have to be confident the document being presented is something you can rely on.

“That it is an accurate reflection of the status of the individual. “I am not sure there is a foolproof answer in the way it is sometimes presented. But we will look at all the options.”

Whitehall officials have been drawing up plans to use vaccine passports to let Brits jet off abroad for their summer holidays. And Boris Johnson hinted they could be used to unlock all sorts of activities forbidden by Covid restrictions.

Quizzed on vaccine passports at a No10 press conference last week, he said:“When we’re in that different world, which I hope will be as soon as possible, then all kinds of apps and all kinds of possibilities will be open to us.” The PM is expected to hold a press conference tomorrow to mark hitting the target of vaccinating the 15m people in the four most vulnerable groups by February 15.

Scottsdale golf club uses vaccine passport for employees, tracking COVID history

From AZ Family: A new app by a Scottsdale-based business tracks your COVID and vaccine status. A Scottsdale golf club is already using it. After 20 years working at Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club, Mike Elmore thinks it’s the best job by par.

“I love it,” said Elmore. “Look at the view.”

When COVID hit Arizona, BuddyCheque’s vaccination passport, ConfirmD, used the golf club as a pilot. The app shows your COVID test history, antibody status, and vaccine record right on your phone.

“We have businesses at Sky Harbor that are already using it,” said Ramsey Kilani, Co-founder of ConfirmD. “We’ve talked to a major airline who is very interested.”

Soon, employees like Elmore will use the app every day at Silverado.

“It’s going to become a passport for their ability to work, and we think eventually that’s something that’s going to go into the airport, restaurants,” said Bill Corn, The Director of Finance for Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club.

Since the pandemic started, Corn said employees got COVID tests frequently to keep everyone healthy. He said the app is another tool to keep employees safe by tracking each one’s COVID data. It won’t be required, but strongly suggested, according to Corn. Golf club staff have mixed feelings about it. Read More

“Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He.” (John 13:19)

For the believer in Christ, these are amazing times we’re living in as we see the world stage being set up just as the bible says it will in the last days preceding Christ’s return. For us, it’s a time of hope as our redemption draws near, but for those yet saved, they lack the same hope and instead may find themselves living in fear as to what tomorrow may bring.

In Revelation 19:10 we’re told that the essence of bible prophecy is Jesus, “For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” My purpose in writing these articles in relation to bible prophecy is to express this truth to ultimately point you to Christ. Bible prophecy is not meant to scare but to prepare. These things were revealed to us so that we have confidence in God’s word and believe in Jesus (John 13:19).

If you have not placed your faith in Jesus’ finished work on the cross, I implore you to do so today (2 Corinthians 6:2)! The bible makes it clear that our life is like a vapor so tomorrow isn’t guaranteed for anyone (James 4:13-14). Because of our sinful and fallen state (Psalm 51:5, Romans 3:23), there’s nothing we can do of our own efforts to reach God or somehow work our way to heaven (Isaiah 64:6).

God instead has provided a way to him through Christ who is the only way to be saved (John 14:6). Although God offers humanity the gift of eternal life through the shed blood of his son, it’s our choice to either reject this gift and pay for the penalty of our sin ourselves or accept it by placing our trust in the one who’s already paid it all in full (Acts 16:30-31, Romans 6:23, Ephesians 2:8-9). Make sure you’ve made the right decision about Jesus today! It will be the most important decision of your life, for eternal life.
