Like It Or Not, Vaccine Passports Are Coming

Within a few weeks, Australia will begin trialling our first vaccine passports, following in the footsteps of many other countries where this digital document is already commonly used to gain access to domestic services like hairdressers and restaurants, and international travel.

For many people this is the logical next step as we try to find a way to move forward with our lives and 'learn to live with Covid', but for others this is yet another violation of our rights to freedom of choice and movement.

The Quicky speaks to an expert in mandatory vaccination policy and a Federal Government Minister to break down how vaccine passports will work in Australia, and explore why people are divided on whether they should exist at all.
